The Anthem of Habakkuk
“GOD IS GOOD” BY THE MODERN POST
This Sunday, we’re bringing back a song that will serve us well as we spend the month of August in the book of Habakkuk. A song that leads us to confess the goodness of God even when it’s hard for us to see. As we journey along with the troubled prophet from complaint and unbelief to comfort and confidence in the Lord, we’ll be singing: “Even when it seems the answer’s no / The promises of God all find their yes.”
Listen to the song here and read through the rest of the lyrics below.
VERSE 1
Even when it seems the answer’s no
The promises of God all find their yes
In Christ who worked the Father’s will below
That all who run to him would find their rest
VERSE 2
And even when it seems he hides his face
And darkness seems to be our only friend
We look to Christ who suffered in our place
That one day all our suffering would end
CHORUS
God is good all of the time
All of the time God is good
God is good all of the time
God is good
VERSE 3
And even when it seems he pays no mind
We have a guarantee of his great love
In Christ who came and left his crown behind
That one day we would reign with him above
BRIDGE
Lord, we believe
But help our unbelief
Lord, we believe
But help our hearts to sing
CHORUS
That you are good all of the time
All of the time you are good
You are good all of the time
You are good
You are good all of the time
All of the time you are good
You are good all of the time
You are good
Lord, you are good
