Many of us were raised to admire the lone hero, self sufficient, independent and strong. Chad looks at this short but profound Psalm and searches the riches of community and brotherhood.

The wonderful Ryan Delmore sings "It Is Good".

Lyrics to "It Is Good"

It's not good that we should be apart

Cut off alone, starvation of the heart

Had it not been for others

I'd be desperate and alone

No family or friends

And lost without a home

To all my brothers and sisters

Forgiven in the Lord

Chorus:

I need you

You need me

And we all need each other

Thank you God

For the chance

To share His love

with one another

Behold, behold it is good

Annointing of oil

Like blessing flowing down

Like dew on the mountains

Your grace flows all around

United with the Son

We share the Father's love

Forgiven and forgiving

With mercy from above

To all my brothers and sisters

Forgiven in the Lord

To every generation

Your children near and far

United in His blessing

Of life forevermore

Behold, behold it is good

Behold, behold it is good
