Lyrics
MEN'S CHORUS
God is good
And He will be our savior,
All we need
Is in His power to give us.
Let the light that lies within His heart
Illuminate our being.
FULL CHORUS
God is good
And with this thought to guide us
We will live
In joyful contemplation.
Let the love that lives within your heart
Illuminate your being.
