"Praise Him in Song"

"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
