1. Knowing goodness from Jehovah
Is a joy through all our days
As our Father in the heavens
He is good in all his ways
Showing favor, granting mercy
Far beyond what we deserve;
He is worthy of our worship
And the One we gladly serve

2. In his likeness he has made us
So that we might cultivate
All the virtues he possesses
And his goodness imitate
May we grow in godly goodness
In his virtues may we share
Let us pray for holy spirit
That its fruitage we might bear

3. Those to whom we are related
In the faith—our brotherhood—
We will show them special favor
But to all may we do good
As we share the Kingdom good news
And our hope with all we meet
May we always be impartial;
May our goodness be complete
