Always Good - Andrew Peterson

Do You remember how Mary was grieving?

How You wept and she fell at Your feet?

If it’s true that You know what I’m feeling

Could it be that You’re weeping with me?

Arise, O Lord, and save me

There’s nowhere else to go

You’re always good, always good

Somehow this sorrow is shaping my heart

Like it should

And You’re always good, always good

It’s so hard to know what You’re doing

So why won’t You tell it all plain?

But You said You’d come back on the third day

And Peter missed it again and again

So maybe the answer surrounds us

And we don’t have eyes to see

You’re always good, always good

This heartache is moving me closer than joy ever could

And You’re always good

My God, my God, be near me

There’s nowhere else to go

And Lord, if You can hear me

Please help Your child to know

That You’re always good, always good

As we try to believe what is not meant

To be understood

Will You help us to trust Your intentions for us are still good?

'Cause You laid down Your life and You suffered like I never could

And You’re always good, always good

You’re always good, always good
