Intro:
H   E          
 
1 Verse:
                  E
I didn't know the Healer,
               H
'Til I needed healing,
                 E
I didn't need a Savior
 
Or some kind of anchor,
               H
'Til I lost my way,
                      E
And I didn't know the Father,
                    H
'Til I felt like an orphan,
                 E
I didn't need a river,
 
A gracious forgiver,
                  H
'Til my soul was stained,
 
Pre Chorus:
    C#m
You took my hurting
    E              
And gave it purpose

Chorus:
      H
Thank God for the anger that forced me to pray,
      D#m
Thank God for the silence that taught me to wait,
       E
If He spared me from breaking, and God knows I did,
       G#m            F#             E
Then I never would've ever known how good God is,
  G#m            F#             E           H
I never would've ever known how good God is

2 Verse:
                   E
I didn't know the Spirit,
                 H
'til I felt His power,
                  E
I didn't see the light
 
'til Hе opened my eyеs
              H
In my darkest hour
                   E
I didn't know the Lion,
                 G#m
'til I heard His roar,
            E
When I was surrounded
 
And couldn't fight without Him 
                H
Not one second more

Chorus:
          H
So thank God for the anger that forced me to pray,
      D#m
Thank God for the silence that taught me to wait
       E
If He spared me from breaking, and God knows I did
       G#m             F#            E
Then I never would've ever known how good God is'
       H
Thank God for the weakness that showed me His strength
      D#m
Thank God for the fire that forged me with faith
       E
If He spared me from drifting as far as I did
       G#m             F#            E
Then I never would've ever known how good God is
 G#m              F#             E
I never would've ever known how good God is

Bridge:
       G#m          D#m           E
God is good, God is good, God is good
       G#m            F#             E
No, I never would've ever known how good God is
 G#m             F#              E
I never would've ever known how good God is

Chorus:
       H
Thank God for His kindness to give up His Son
   D#m
To sit there and watch as He says, "It is done"
        E
If He spared Him from thorns and the nails through His wrists
        G#m            F#              E
Then I never would've ever known how good God is
  G#m            F#             E
I never would've ever known how good God is
