PANCOCOJAMS EDITOR'S NOTE

The call & response saying "God Is Good" / "All The Time" is particularly well known among African Americans. That saying most likely originated in the mid 20th century among African American Protestant congregations in the Southern region of the United States.

This pancocojams blog showcases three African American Gospel recordings with that title or with the title "God Is Good". The earliest African American recording that I have come across is "God Is Good All The Time" (1995) by Pastor Alvin Darling.

The second African American example of a Gospel song with those titles that I have come across is "God Is Good" (2000) by Chester D. T. Baldwin. 

The third African American example of a Gospel song with those titles is "God Is Good" (2008) by Regina Belle. Click https://pancocojams.blogspot.com/2024/07/regina-belle-god-is-good-youtube-gospel.html for the pancocojams post that showcases that song.

A Gospel song entitled "God Is Good All The Time" was recorded in 1998 by (White American) Don Moen. Click https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q376chG2yDs for a YouTube video of that song.

LYRICS - GOD IS GOOD
(Composer - Chester D. T. Baldwin

Even though sometimes
It seems like you can't take it
(God is still good)
He'll give you a way to escape it
(All of the time)
He may not come when you want Him to
But I guarantee He'll step in right on time

God is good
God is good
God is good
All the time

God is good
God is good
My God is good all the time

When I woke up early this morning
I thanked the Lord for a brand new day
I know that my God is still in control
My God is good all the time

God is good all of the time
All of the time
My God's good all the time
All of the time (repeat)
My God is good all the time.
