“You Are Good” by Evans Ogboi
The opening declaration, “I can testify that You are Good,” resonates with the biblical call to remember and proclaim God’s deeds. In Psalm 107:1-2 (NLT), it is written: “Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good! His faithful love endures forever. Has the Lord redeemed you? Then speak out!” This verse encourages believers to vocalize their experiences of God’s goodness, aligning with the song’s emphasis on personal testimony.Register to attend the Connect Nigeria Business Mixer
The lyrics, “Lord You brought me out, out of darkness into light,” echo the transformative journey described in 1 Peter 2:9 (NLT): “For he called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light.” This metaphor of moving from darkness to light signifies a transition from a life without purpose to one filled with divine direction, inspiring hope and a renewed sense of purpose in the believer’s daily walk.

Affirmations such as “Your love never fails and Your mercy is forever” draw from Lamentations 3:22-23 (NLT): “The faithful love of the Lord never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is his faithfulness; his mercies begin afresh each morning.” Reflecting on these attributes of God fosters faithfulness and spiritual growth, reminding believers of the constant and reliable nature of God’s love and mercy. Incorporating “You Are Good” into daily worship not only enriches personal devotion but also encourages a communal expression of gratitude. Singing these truths reinforces the believer’s connection to God and to the faith community, fostering a shared experience of worship and mutual edification.
