Intro

Verse 1

You are good in all things perfect
Oh I can trust your promise
I've never seen You turn away
You have loved me undeserving
Oh I have seen Your mercy
Follow me all my days

Pre-Chorus 1

Oh it doesn't make sense
How Your love is so good
You called me Your friend
And I thought I was too far
Gone now I know
You're never gonna let me go

Chorus

You are good
And You can only be good
You can't be anything else
You can't be anything else

Interlude

Verse 2

Hindsight's always twenty twenty
I can look behind me
And see just how far I've come
You've saved me from the
brink of falling
Mercy shutting doors before me
Now I see all the good You've done

Pre-Chorus 2

When it doesn't make sense
And the future's unsure
I look at my past
And I see You there all
Along so I know
You're never gonna let me go

You can't be anything else
You can't be anything else

You can't be anything else

Good (Can't Be Anything Else) - In the Bible [Verses & Devotional]

 

In the song “Good (Can’t Be Anything Else)” by Cody Carnes, we are reminded of the goodness of God. The lyrics remind us that even when we feel like there is nothing good in us, God is still good. He is love, light, hope, peace, truth, joy, and life. 

We can find this truth in the Bible. In Psalm 34:8, it says “Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.” This verse reminds us that God is good and that we can take refuge in Him. In 1 John 4:8, it says “Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.” This verse reminds us that God is love and that we can find love in Him. In Isaiah 9:2, it says “The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned.” This verse reminds us that God is light and that He can bring light into our darkness.

In Romans 5:8, it says “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” This verse reminds us that God is hope and that He sent His son to die for us. In Philippians 4:7, it says “And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” This verse reminds us that God is peace and that He can give us peace in our lives. In John 14:6, it says “Jesus answered, ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.’” This verse reminds us that God is truth and that He is the only way to the Father. 

As we reflect on the lyrics of this song and the Bible verses, we can be reminded of the goodness of God. He is good, love, light, hope, peace, truth, joy, and life. We can take refuge in Him and find all of these things in Him.
