This powerful rendition of "Goodness of God" will move your heart. This version of the beloved contemporary Christian tune deserves to be listened to repeatedly. Watch the short but moving clip to hear this stunning, jaw-dropping vocal performance.
Contemporary Christian music is a genre that continues to grow in popularity, with its many songs about Christ's love, mercy and grace. More and more churches have chosen those popular, modern songs to fill their Sunday morning services' praise and worship portion over the more traditional, old church hymns. Additionally, some Christian music artists have experienced success on pop radio, such as Lauren Daigle, MercyMe and Brandon Lake.
Like every other genre of music, there are classics when it comes to contemporary Christian music. These are typically the songs that continued to get covered by anybody and everybody with a microphone. "You Say," by Lauren Daigle and Hillsong UNITED's "Oceans (Where Feet May Fail) are two that immediately come to mind.
However, Bethel Music and Jenn Johnson's "Goodness of God" also frequently receives the cover treatment. In a clip posted on YouTube, Stephen McWhirter adds his name to the ever-growing list of musicians who have covered "Goodness of God," and his version is fantastic.
It's understandable why "Goodness of God" gets performed and covered at such an impressively high rate. It's a beautifully written tune about the loving, forgiving and faithful God we serve. It also doesn't hurt that the song has one of the catchiest choruses you've heard within the last decade or song.
"'Cause all my life You have been faithful
And all my life, You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God"
"Goodness of God" is a memorable and iconic tune, and Stephen's acoustic cover of this song is simply delightful. His unique, unmistakable voice adds so much character and meaning to every song he performs.
Colossians 3:16 "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord."
