"Good Good Father"
The saying of the word "good" twice in the title of the song, "Good Good Father" doubles the praise. The song goes on to give reasons why He is good.
Oh, and I've seen many searching
For answers far and wide
But I know we're all searching
For answers only You provide
'Cause You know what we need
Before we say a word
Jesus talked often of the Father. In John 16:27, Jesus tells His disciples, "For the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God."
Oh, it's love so undeniable
I, I can hardly speak
Peace so unexplainable
I, I can hardly think
As You call me deeper still
Into love, love, love
You're a good good Father
It's who You are, it's who You are, It's who You are
And I'm loved by You
It's who I am, it's who I am, it's who I am
You're a good good Father
Chris Tomlin first heard the song when his wife played a tape of it for him. It was written by Pat Barrett and Tony Brown.
Other words to the song are:
Oh, I've heard a thousand stories
Of what they think You're like
But I've heard the tender whisper
Of love in the dead of night
And You tell me that You're pleased
And that I'm never alone
You are perfect in all Your ways
You are perfect in all of Your ways
You are perfect in all of Your ways to us
