About the song
This is the 1st song I composed. Well, more like... remixed. Cause, If you observe carefully, the words are no different from the original GIG by Don Moen. I just rearranged everything, changed the tune, music and woahla!

Actually, everything started here. I remember I was in a poly holiday camp.. and I was waiting for the next activity to start. There happen to be a guitar and some p & w song sheets left on a bench. So I decided to kill time by playing some songs. Halfway through my friends came by to join me. So I decided to be playful and randomly threw in different chords and sang differently when they got to the chorus. Then to my amazement, it worked! It really sounds good!

So, from that, it led me to experiment with different chords and putting them together and I eventually completed the song by trial and error. I wasn't formally trained to play the guitar. So, the amount of time spent just trying to fit different chords together was painful!
Lyrics
GOD IS GOOD
(Re-mixed)

VERSE 1:
1 Em
If you’re walking through the valley
Bm Em
And there are shadows all around
1 Em
Do not fear, for He will guide you
Bm Em
He will keep you safe and sound
C D
He has promised to never leave you
2
Nor forsake you
A C
And His word is true

CHORUS:
Em D C
God is good all the time
(He put a song of praise, in this heart of mine...)
God is good all the time
(Through the darkest night, His light will shine…)

BRIDGE:
Am Bm
Though I may not understand
Am D
All the plans you have for me
Am Bm
My life is in your hands
F C
And through the eyes of faith
I can clearly see that…

VERSE 2:
We were sinners, so unworthy
But still for us He chose to die
Filled us with His Holy Spirit
Now we can stand and testify
That his love is everlasting
And His mercies
They will never end
