"You Are Good" by Alice Peters: Celebrating God's Mercy and Love


Alice Peters' song "You Are Good" reminds us of God's goodness and His love for us. It also encourages you to think about, "How has God been good to you?" We all know the story of Jesus, the Master of the universe and King of kings, and still He humbled Himself to live among us. He loved us so much that He even paid our price on the cross to save us.

Alice Peters - You Are GoodAlice's message is clear—God's goodness isn't just something theoretical; it's tangible, and we may experience it in our own lives. Lines like "I have tasted of Your mercy, I have tasted of Your love" remind us how tangible His grace is and that it changes us from the inside out. His mercy is endless, constantly renewing us, molding us, and inviting us to also actively participate in His work: "Help me Lord to join You now."

May the lyrics of this song encourage you to reflect on how you have experienced God in your life, and motivate you to celebrate that He is always there for you, ready to hold you, guide you, and is preparing a place for that day when you return. Go ahead and give "You Are Good" a listen.

Joseph Craft's "Fire Fall" is a cry for surrender, a song that invites the Spirit to "set my soul ablaze." The first lines of the song place you before God: "Here in Your presence I stand // Fully surrendered to You." And what is it that Joseph asks? "Spirit awaken inside of me // Invade my heart again."

"Are you ready to let go of everything holding you back?" That's the big question that kept going through my mind as I listened to this song.
