‘Goodness of God’ by Cultivation Worship: A Beautiful Acoustic Cover


Cultivation Worship's rendition of 'Goodness of God' by Bethel Music is a beautiful acoustic cover, with an intimate blend of acoustic guitar, cello, a strong female lead, and male background vocals. It's a version they made for their church services, and loved so much by the congregation that the band decided to share it with the world.

Cultivation Worship - Goodness of GodFor anyone who is not that familiar with the song, the main theme of the song is about God's unwavering faithfulness (dispite everything we do to counter that) and His enduring goodness that is there to enter every moment of our lives (if we let Him in), and invites us to respond with gratitude and praise. 

It is because of His goodness that we can wake up each morning and lay our head down each night, fully aware that we are held in His loving hands. 'I love You, Lord // Oh, Your mercy never failed me // All my days, I've been held in Your hands,' the lyrics remind us that from dawn till dusk, we can experience His goodness. 

As the song unfolds with personal testimonies of God's faithfulness, tenderly sung, it becomes easier to open the door to your heart to Him, because: 'In the darkest night, You are close like no other // I've known You as a Father, I've known You as a Friend.' And that is exactly what He want to be for you as well… a Father and a Friend, ready with his comforting embrace, hoping that you'll remember His endless goodness even when you face some of life's toughest moments. 

The chorus, 'All my life You have been faithful // And all my life You have been so, so good,' strikes deep, especially when one realizes how often we push Him away with our actions, words, and sometimes giving Him the 'silent treatment'. The chorus acts for so many as a personal anthem, a constant reminder that He never leaves you. 

So, go ahead and hit play, and may Cultivation Worship's rendition of 'Goodness of God' encourage you to enjoy God's warm embrace today.

"Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" by Stephen M. Miller: Holding On to Grace at Heaven’s Door

Stephen M. Miller's "Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" comes in the quiet aftermath of the Christmas celebrations, when reflection can feel like isolation. Stephen's song isn't about polishing away his mistakes, nor does it encourage you to do so with your mistakes. Stephen shares his painful experience, "I never saw it coming Lord // It felt right but it was wrong // Family and friends have left me // But I still have you and a song."   Stephen owns the fallout of his actions, taking accountability without despair. "I said it and I did it, Lord // Broke more hearts than I'll ever know // I can't fix this, though I've tried // Don't be angry, and please don't go." His song is a prayer for God's presence and guidance. "Hear me when I call you, Lord // Don't turn your face away // Don't give up on me like others have // Come help me through this day." Stephen describes a fear that we too experience when we ...

"I Stand Amazed In The Presence" by Jonathan Abel: When Everything Fails, This Holds

When life falls apart, what’s left to stand on?  At 32 years old, Jonathan Abel was in the hospital, unable to stand or walk without his heart racing above 130bpm. His nervous system was shutting down, and he didn’t know if he’d see 33. In the silence of that crisis, something broke open — not his faith, but his illusions about where his faith had been anchored. Health, strength, and the ability to fix yourself. These feel like solid ground until they aren’t. Jonathan writes that the temptation to root your identity in perfect health and great wealth is “deceivingly real.” But when everything he trusted in his own body failed, one truth held firm: Christ had already done what Jonathan could never have done for himself. This is the key message behind this song, “He took my sins and my sorrows, He made them His very own. He bore the burden to Calvary, and suffered, and died alone.” Jesus didn’t observe suffering from a distance — He absorbed it.  Romans 8:18 says it plainly: “I...

Ryan Stevenson - Carry Me (CCM)

Ryan Stevenson’s song ‘Carry Me’ is a powerful and emotive plea for help and guidance, and a reminder of the transformative power of faith. The lyrics are deeply personal and relatable, touching on themes of weariness, loneliness, and uncertainty.
