God Is God - Steve Earle

I believe in prophecy

Some folks see things not everybody can see

And, once in a while, they pass the secret along to you and me

And I believe in miracles

Something sacred burning in every bush and tree

We can all learn to sing the songs the angels sing

Yeah, I believe in God, and God ain’t me

I’ve traveled around the world

Stood on mighty mountains and gazed across the wilderness

Never seen a line in the sand or a diamond in the dust

And as our fate unfurls

Every day that passes I’m sure about a little bit less

Even my money keeps telling me it’s God I need to trust

And I believe in God, but God ain’t us

God, in my little understanding, don’t care what name I call

Whether or not I believe doesn’t matter at all

I receive the blessings

That every day on Earth’s another chance to get it right

Let this little light of mine shine and rage against the night

Just another lesson

Maybe someone’s watching and wondering what I got

Maybe this is why I’m here on Earth, and maybe not

But I believe in God, and God is God
