Is there a higher power - It's easy enough to
see
Who created the skies - And all there is to be
Why do we get that feeling - When we've done something bad
That we've just betrayed a friend - And we're feeling kinda sad!!
It's because, deep within - Every person's heart
God is there residing - And has been from the start
Little children always know it - But grow up and forget
But he's still always there - Wanting to help, if we'll just let!!
But we're so self sufficient - What do we really
need
Mostly just the money - Which feeds on all our greed
But God, he is patient - For his love for us never fails
He holds us in his arms - When we finally ask with a wail!!
And have you ever wondered - Why you didn't succeed
At something you really wanted - And felt a great, great need
Then something else would materialize - Which was better and nicer
by far
But you discounted it for luck - Or the fact you were a star!!
Well, I think God was involved - And fortunately
he doesn't give up
And though he's being totally ignored - By us and our empty cup
He lets us go on - To decide all alone
But our free will and choices - Cause such a loud moan!!
How did this happen - I've lost all my gain
My fortune is gone - I can't live with this pain
Our head starts to buzzing - Our stomachs upset
Then suddenly we're calm - And the answers we get!!
We're shown in our hearts - As our lives replay
The choices we've made - Brought us this day
But the pain goes away - As God grabs our hand
And shows us the way - To get up and stand!!
The healing begins - And our lives move along
Each day's a little brighter - As we recover and get strong
But the real test is ahead - Though this battle is done
Remembering our God spirit within - Was the reason we won!!
