Goodness Of God Chords by Bethel Music & Jenn Johnson

Bethel Music and Jenn Johnson’s modern worship anthem is a joy to learn thanks to the simple Goodness of God chords.

If you’ve already learned Wonderwall (and what guitarist hasn’t?!) then you’ll already be familiar with many of the chords.

If you’re interested in easy songs for guitar, we’ve got a list of 100 songs perfect for any beginner guitarist.

Goodness Of God Chords

Capo at 1st fret.

‘T’ on the D/F# chord indicates thumb, which I find the easiest way to play this chord, but you could use your index finger.
