“Only Ever Good” was written by Steve Davis, Jordan Colle, Nick Morrow & Lauren Scott. It is the first single lifted from SONS’ new collaborative project with TRIBL entitled “Live From 1971” releasing on September 9th.
Only Ever Good expresses God’s unwavering goodness. His nature is goodness, and his goodness infinitely extends to his sons and daughters. It’s a declaration that in good times and bad, His nature doesn’t change.
Lyrics
Verse 1
I am my Father’s dream
He only looks on me with pride
Always so kind to me
He says I’m perfect in His eyes
Why should I ever doubt
He won’t ever change His mind
Chorus
Only ever good, only ever good
Only ever good to me
Only ever good, only ever good
Only ever good to me
That’s all You’ve ever been
That’s all You’re gonna be
Only ever good, only ever good
Only ever good to me
Verse 2
I am my Father’s dream
He only sees me with delight
My innocence redeemed
My reputation reconciled
The prize of suffering
He bought me with the blood of Christ
Chorus 2
Only ever good, only ever good
Only ever good to me
Only ever good, only ever good
Only ever good to me
That’s all You’ve ever been
That’s all You’re gonna be
Only ever good, only ever good
Only ever good to me
Bridge
It’s your nature
You can’t help it
What could stop
All Your goodness
Since forever
You’ve been like this
What could stop
All Your goodness
