  • You made the rain, so when it falls on me, should I complain?
    Or feel You're calling me
    It's all on me to stay and really catch what You're showing
    It's my roots that You're growing, 'cause life is more than this moment

    You are the light so, when the darkness falls
    The greatest heights, they never seem so tall, no, not at all
    You're right, it's my roots that You're growing
    Don't wanna miss what You're showing

    Ain't no doubt about You
    Everywhere that I go You keep showing up Lord, You
    Make me wanna shout it, oh
    You're the goodness in my life

    And I'ma tell you, my truth
    They may come, they may go
    You keep showing up, sure do
    Ain't no doubt about it
    You are (You are) the goodness in my life

    You are the joy (joy)
    You're the smile on the face of Your boy (boy)
    You're the flowers at the park in Detroit
    Still the words on the back of our coins
    Let's make some noise (hey)

    You cover me
    My defender, when You're rolling up Your sleeve
    You're the truth that's gonna set the captive free
    The only King that's ever chose to bleed (chose to bleed)
    That's what I believe (what I believe)

    But they keep trying to make Your glory fade (fade)
    But I ain't really sweating what they say (say)

    Ain't no doubt about You
    Everywhere that I go You keep showing up Lord, You
    Make me wanna shout it, oh
    You're the goodness in my life

    And I'ma tell you, my truth
    They may come, they may go
    You keep showing up, sure do
    Ain't no doubt about it
    You are (You are) the goodness in my life

    Through the good and the bad and the ugly
    I can still see the sunshine above me
    Lord, I love all the ways that You love me
    You're the good, You're the good, You're the goodness

    Through the good and the bad and the ugly (woo)
    I can still feel the sunshine above me (tell 'em Blessing)
    Lord, I love all the ways that You love me (yeah)
    You're the good (yeah) You're the good (yeah) You're the goodness

    You're the good (You are) You're the good (You are)
    You're the good, You're the good, You're the goodness
    Yeah, You're the goodness
    You're the good (You are), You're the good (You are)
    You're the good, You're the good, You're the goodness

    Ain't no doubt about You
    Everywhere that I go You keep showing up Lord, You
    Make me wanna shout it, oh (oh)
    You're the goodness in my life

    And I'ma tell you, my truth (yeah)
    They may come, they may go
    You keep showing up, sure do
    Ain't no doubt about it
    You are, You are (woo)
    (The goodness) the goodness (in my life) in my life

    (You're the good, You are, You're the good) You are, You are
    (You are) You are
    You are (You're the good, You're the good, You're the)
    (Goodness in) You're the good in my life

    (You're the good) in my life (You are)
    (You're the good) in my life (You are)
    (You're the good) yes (You're the good) you are (You're the goodness in my life)
    Oh (You're the good, You are) thank You (You're the good, You are)
    (You're the good) yes You are (You're the good, You're the goodness in my life)

    You are, You are
    Still the goodness in my life Writer/s: Bryan Fowler, Gabe Patillo, Kyle Williams, Toby McKeehan
