The
Goodness of God
Free
to all, the goodness of God springs
forth from love.
Those
responding experience newness from
above.
Bound in
guilt, shame, and self-hatred,
hearts fill with love.
With
goodness received, insight and
revelation flow freely.
Hearts
wide open, freedom from terrors
within flow fearlessly.
With the
Father's goodness imparted,
refreshing pours forth.
As
repentance takes root, the dryness
of the soul is refreshed.
Like a
mighty rushing river, the soul is
cleansed with forgiveness.
Giving
way, streams of living water pour
forth out of abundance.
From the
beauty of the newness within comes a
heart of peace.
Like a
guardrail, the goodness of God comes
with solid security.
A
stronghold in a day of trouble;
anxiety and tension disappear.
New
strongholds in place, peace holds
firm in disparity.
Though
storms come, waves of peace wash
away all agitation.
As hope
fills, its anchor holds steady while
storms rage on.
As
goodness takes root, body, soul, and
spirit experience healing.
Where
sickness and disease existed, now
faith and healing for all.
As
healing takes root, sin, and wounds
give way to regeneration.
Where
destruction was, now comes
redemption from the fall.
Oh, that
God's people would give thanks for
His goodness to all.
The Lord
is good, a stronghold in the day of
trouble;
and He
knows those who trust in Him.
Nahum
1:7
