The Power to Do Good | A Prophetic Song on Goodness | Fruit of the Spirit Series – Part 6

🎵 In a world starved for truth and mercy, Goodness isn't just a virtue — it's a weapon of light, a reflection of the Father’s heart, and a signpost pointing others to Christ. This prophetic song dives into the deep scriptural meaning of goodness as a fruit of the Spirit. It’s not about trying harder — it’s about letting the Spirit transform our very nature.

God’s goodness isn’t just His kindness — it’s His moral purity, His justice, His compassion, and His willingness to act on behalf of the broken. When the Spirit produces goodness in us, it becomes active righteousness. We don’t just “feel” good, we do good — even when it costs us.

In this song, we trace goodness through both Old and New Testaments — from David’s psalms to Christ’s words to Paul’s exhortations. This is a teaching moment wrapped in melody, inviting every listener to live out the goodness they’ve received. The lyrics are soaked in scripture, designed to build up the Body while reaching the lost with truth and grace.

🎶 Lyrics: The Power to Do Good

(A prophetic song of radiant goodness and holy resistance)

[intro – light acoustic guitar and ambient textures]

Verse 1
In a world that calls evil good,
Where shadows preach what no one should—
I heard the voice of Yah declare:
"Depart from evil, do what’s fair."
Psalm 34:14 echoed clear,
“Seek peace, pursue it”—draw it near.
Goodness ain’t just being nice—
It’s standing true and paying the price.

Verse 2
When Noah stood in days defiled,
He walked with God, a blameless child.
The world was judged, the skies were torn—
But goodness built a place reborn.
Like Boaz showed in fields of grain,
Kindness flowing without shame.
Ruth 2:12, he covered her with grace—
Goodness planted in a holy place.

[build with strings and deep kick drum, like a heartbeat]

Chorus 1
The power to do good—
Is the fire that won’t die.
It loves when no one’s watching,
It bleeds but still will try.
Overcome the night with light,
Don’t fold, don’t fade, don’t flee.
This is more than moral strength—
It’s God's Spirit living in me.
Galatians 5:22, written in fire:
“The fruit of the Spirit is goodness...”

[guitar break – slightly gritty, resolve into soft piano]

Verse 3
Elisha fed the hungry ones,
When famine held back all the sun.
He gave the firstfruits, not the least—
And multiplied a humble feast.
2 Kings 4:42–44, grace at hand,
Teaching us to give, not just stand.
Goodness moves—it doesn’t wait,
It bends injustice, shifts the weight.

Verse 4
Jesus said, "Why call Me good?"
Luke 18:19, misunderstood.
For none is good but God alone—
Yet goodness walked, flesh and bone.
He healed the leper, touched the blind,
Broke bread with thieves, left none behind.
That cross? The proof beyond the flood:
Goodness paid in holy blood.

[bridge – full band rise, echoing strength]

Bridge
Don’t let the cynics steal your spark.
Don’t let cold hearts leave you dark.
Keep sowing truth when no one sees—
There’s power in your secret deeds.
Romans 12:21, rise again:
"Overcome evil with good," Amen.
We’re not weak, and we’re not tame—
We’re warriors of the Lamb who reigns.

Final Chorus
The power to do good—
Is a holy, burning thing.
It breaks the curse, restores the hurt,
It lets the Spirit sing.
The meek shall shine, the just shall rise,
Not in might, but love that bleeds.
Goodness isn’t just what’s right—
It’s Heaven answering the need.

[outro – quiet fade, heartbeat rhythm on kick drum]
