Riley Clemmons has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called For The Good - Acoustic.
This song is a powerful reminder of the sovereignty of God is presented in "For the Good," which is based on Romans 8:28. For Clemmons, this song also has a personal significance.
Clemmons shares, "This song is deeply rooted in one of my favorite Bible verses of all time, Romans 8:28, saying `all things work together for the good for those who love God and are the called according to His purposes.'
This verse has brought my family & myself so much comfort over the past couple of years, as not only we've walked through a tough time as a family, but as we've watched the world around us change. Never so much before have we needed the promise that God is working things together for the good. I hope this song encourages you & reminds you, no matter what season you're walking through, that God is with you and for you."
LYRICS:
I wouldn't say I would've chosen it
That time I hit the bottom and it hurt a little bit
Funny how being down can make you look up
But now I'm better for it
All I could see in the moment was
My heart and how it felt ripped open, I'll admit
I found You down low in the brokenness
And now I'm better for it
I count it all as joy even when I'm in the flame
'Cause I know You always
Gimme, gimme, gimme grace when I need it
Hindsight 20/20, now I see that
You let me be where I've been
So I can be all that I am
You gimme, gimme, gimme faith to believe that
When it hurts, there's a real good reason
You let me be where I've been
So I can be all that I am
Yeah, I used to think pain was a consequence
But now I kinda think it might be the perfect gift
You use to get me straight to You
And I'm better for it
I count it all as joy even when I'm in the flame
'Cause I know You always
Gimme, gimme, gimme grace when I need it
Hindsight 20/20, now I see that
You let me be where I've been
So I can be all that I am
You gimme, gimme, gimme faith to believe that
When it hurts, there's a real good reason
You let me be where I've been
So I can be all that I am
Down low
Down in the broken
I found You
And I'm better for it
Down low
Down in the broken
I found You
And I'm better for it
I'm better 'cause I'll never have to be the way I would be
Without You, without You
Leading me where You want me
I'm better 'cause I'll never have to be the way I would be
Without You, without You
Leading me where You want me
Gimme, gimme, gimme grace when I need it
Hindsight 20/20, now I see that
You let me be where I've been
So I can be all that I am
You gimme, gimme, gimme faith to believe that
When it hurts, there's a real good reason
You let me be where I've been
So I can be all that I am
Down low
Down in the broken
I found You
And I'm better for it
Down low
Down in the broken
I found You
And I'm better for it
Down low
Down in the broken
I found You
And I'm better for it
Down low
Down in the broken
I found You
And I'm better for it
