Lyrics
Lord, it feels good
To be loved, to be loved, to be loved
To be loved by You, whoa, oh
To be loved by You
Your love is like the sunlight
That shines on my face every day
It meets me in the morning
Dawning in a thousand new shades
Man, I know I don't deserve it
I don't deserve it
It ain't nothing short of perfect
Short of perfect
I ain't done a thing to earn it
Ain't done a thing to earn it
But You give it anyway
One, two, three, four
Lord, it feels good
To be loved, to be loved, to be loved
To be loved by You, whoa, oh
To be loved by You
Ain't a thing I can do
I'll be loved, I'll be loved
It's enough to be loved by You, whoa, oh
To be loved by You (Yeah)
I'm feeling loved when the walls shake, loved when my heart breaks
In arms that are open wide
I'm feeling loved in the chaos, when I'm feeling anxious
A river when my heart runs dry
Your love
Man, I know I don't deserve all of these blessings
Your love
I put my faith in You so I can stop the guessing
Your love
I got a good life, but Father, You're the best thing
I don't say it as much as I should
Lord, it feels good
To be loved, to be loved, to be loved
To be loved by You, whoa, oh
To be loved by You
Ain't a thing I can do
I'll be loved, I'll be loved
It's enough to be loved by You, whoa, oh
To be loved by You
Your love, Your love, Your love, yeah
It's just Your love
So many things I can say about it
Can't help but smile when I think about it
I can't help but just smile
Your love, Your love, Your love, yeah
It's just Your love
That's the beautiful thing about it
I just smile, smile, and say
Smile, smile, say
It feels good, yeah
Oh yeah
Lord, it feels good
To be loved, to be loved, to be loved
To be loved by You, whoa, oh
To be loved by
To be loved by You
Ain't a thing I can do
No, no, no
I'll be loved, I'll be loved
It's enough to be loved by You, whoa, oh
That's right
To be loved by You
Your love, Your love, Your love, yeah
It's just Your love

Meaning & Inspiration
“Lord It Feels Good” centers on the security of being loved by God without having earned that love. Images of sunlight at morning, open arms during heartbreak, and a river for a dry heart describe divine care as steady and renewing. The singer acknowledges personal unworthiness and responds with faith rather than anxious uncertainty. Even when walls shake or chaos rises, God’s love is presented as sufficient, generous, and present.
The song’s language about undeserved blessing aligns with 1 John 4:10, which locates love in God’s initiative rather than human achievement. Its morning imagery may also recall Lamentations 3:22–23, where God’s mercies are described as new each morning. The confidence expressed amid heartbreak and anxiety fits Romans 8:38–39, a passage affirming that no circumstance can separate believers from God’s love. These connections support the song’s central confession: divine love is not secured by performance but received with trust, gratitude, and joyful assurance.
