His Good In Me Lyrics

Verse 1
I have spent all the money
I ever owned
I have squandered all my talents,
there’s nothing to show
But now I gladly come
just as I am to Jesus
And I pray He’d create His
good in me.

Chorus
But maybe He can make
something of me Oooh…
I know I’m not as smart
Like someone else,
I don’t pretend to be
But this one thing I know for sure
My old wretched soul won’t find its cure
Till He has been lifted in me.

Verse 2
This old flesh I wear
gets so hard to bear
And is sometimes weak
My forgetful mind just won’t let me find
The words to speak
And everyday old Satan tells me
That there’s no need to believe
That He could ever make
something of me.

Notes

This hymn speaks to the Christian experience of humility, surrender, and reliance on Jesus for transformation. In the first verse, the speaker acknowledges their past mistakes—having squandered money and talents with nothing to show for it. They come to Jesus in their brokenness, realizing that they cannot fix themselves and are in desperate need of His grace. The line “just as I am” echoes the famous hymn of the same title, signifying that Jesus accepts us despite our imperfections and failures.

The chorus reflects a deep sense of inadequacy, as the speaker feels they are not as intelligent or capable as others, but they trust that Jesus can still create something beautiful in them. This humility is central to the Christian faith, as believers understand that transformation and healing come not through their own efforts but through Christ’s work in their lives.

The second verse highlights the frailty of human existence—physical weakness, forgetfulness, and the ever-present temptation from Satan, who sows seeds of doubt. Despite these struggles, the hymn expresses hope that Jesus can indeed make “something” out of a broken life. The recurring theme of lifting Jesus up shows a deep trust that as He is glorified, the believer will be transformed.
