If That Ain't God
Miracles in Everyday Moments: If That Ain't God by Chris Young
Lyrics
I ain't never thought much of getting up
I've never placed much importance on waking up.
Or the climb down the stairs to my coffee cup
Or the simple act of descending the stairs to have my morning coffee.
Or the good morning news in the background
Or the routine of listening to the morning news in the background.
'Til I heard somebody on it talking 'bout
Until I overheard someone on the news speaking about
A kid from my town only eight or nine
A child from my town, only eight or nine years old,
Who took a punch from cancer but he won that fight
Who battled cancer and emerged victorious.
He had his first home run first time at the plate
He hit his first home run during his initial time at bat.
Then he pointed at the sky and it made me think
Then he gestured towards the sky, prompting me to contemplate
If that ain't God, if that ain't Him
If that isn't a manifestation of God, if that isn't His presence
If that ain't the man upstairs somewhere looking down on us again
If that isn't a higher power observing us from above once more
Don't it make you wanna pray? Don't it make you wanna live?
Doesn't it compel you to pray? Doesn't it inspire you to truly live?
Oh, if that ain't God, if that ain't God, I don't know what is
Oh, if that isn't God, if that isn't God, I'm uncertain what else it could be.
I took a breath and I looked out the windowpane
I took a breath and observed through the windowpane
At the sunrise man, only He could paint
The sunrise, a sight only He could create.
It got me thinking 'bout all my crazy years
This made me reflect on all the tumultuous moments in my life
And the miracles, y'all, that got me here
And the astounding occurrences that led me to where I am today.
Make a grown man wanna cry happy tears
It moves a grown man to tears of happiness.
If that ain't God, if that ain't Him
If that isn't God, if that isn't His presence
If that ain't the man upstairs somewhere looking down on us again
If that isn't a higher power observing us from above once more
Don't it make you wanna pray? Don't it make you wanna live?
Doesn't it compel you to pray? Doesn't it inspire you to truly live?
Oh, if that ain't God, if that ain't God, I don't know what is
Oh, if that isn't God, if that isn't God, I'm uncertain what else it could be.
Yeah, I don't know what is
Yes, I'm uncertain what else it could be.
Red sunset over blue water
A red sunset over blue water
Every day you get with your son or your daughter
Every day spent with your child
If you got a roof over your head, boots under your feet
If you have a roof over your head, shoes on your feet
Somebody by your side, you see and say
Someone beside you whom you see and appreciate
If that ain't God, if that ain't Him
If that isn't God, if that isn't His presence
If that ain't the man upstairs somewhere looking down on us again
If that isn't a higher power observing us from above once more
Don't it make you wanna pray? Don't it make you wanna live, live, live?
Doesn't it compel you to pray? Doesn't it inspire you to truly live, live, live?
Oh, if that ain't God, if that ain't God, I don't know what is
Oh, if that isn't God, if that isn't God, I'm uncertain what else it could be.
Oh, if that ain't God, if that ain't God, I don't know what is
-Yeah, I don't know what is
Yes, I'm uncertain what else it could be.
