“None good, but one, that is, God.” (Matt. 19:17.)
So said our blessed Lord; He was Emmanuel, God with us, God manifest in flesh.
If God is so good, but none the less in sorrow,
Like clouds that float along a sky of light,
For there are stars that daylight cannot borrow,
And God’s best promises shine out at night.
God is so good. Oh! for a soul on fire,
Oh for a heart to praise Him as I should,
God is so good, let my whole life inspire,
And with my lips proclaim that God is good.
