John Schneider - An Act of God Lyrics

Why's it take a flood to make us see

all of the love we share in our time of need

there's no color, no black, no white, no blue

There's just you helping me and me just helping you

Why's it take a fire to make it known

It's the people in our lives and not the things we own

there's no muslim, no christian and no Jew

Its just you caring for me and me just caring for you

It's no secret it's been passed down through the years

love is hope and love can wash away our fears

when we know that disaster is his rod

then we'll know an act of God

then we'll know an act of God

So here we are in Baton Rouge

digging out from the mud and trying to regroup

there is no anger, there's no helpless sad refrain

there's only a spirit here to get up and start it again

Only God's tears can wash all hate away

take away the colors so we can see

when water rises and rainbows paint the day

you don't have to be a believer to believe
