When I try to explain why I believe in God

I have it in my head, but it’s so hard

Easy to give a verse or a track card,

But the unbeliever’s heart, is too on guard.

I can only explain what He has done for me

Who I was, how He set me free

When I went through, how right there He’d be

When I was blind, how he’d make me see.

I can tell you about my wretched life

How He removed me from my ex’s knife,

Full of tears, fears and plenty strife,

And transformed me into a happy wife.

Would that be enough to make you believe?

What can I say to make you perceive

That only God could help me receive, healing

So that I no longer grieve.

How do I explain this God above,

With His magnificent, yet intimate love

That fit into my heart, like a glove

When at my lowest, I felt so… unloved.

You will never find God in the physical things

He is the wind within the eagle’s wings

He is the anointing when the choir sings

It was for Him who I caught feelings.

God is in the lightning, the trees and the waves

He is in your heart when your child misbehaves

He is in the conscience when the alcoholic craves

Trying to remind him… He is the one who saves.

Even if you’ve never done harm

Even if you have the greatest charm

Even if you don’t believe in David’s Psalm

It’s still God that wakes you, not the alarm.
