Lyrics
It's A God Thing
I remember years ago
Sittin' with Mama on the back porch
Of the family farm
Watchin' the red sun set
She used to say you could paint for years
And never get done what God's done here
Then she'd wave her arms
And say just look at that
Mama raised us kids on faith
She'd say some things can't be explained
It's a God thing
Floatin' on a river
Throwin' out a line on a perfect day
It's a God thing
Starin' at a rainbow
Wonderin' how the colors worked out that way
It's a God thing
Holdin' that first-born child
Truly amazing things happen every once in a while
It's like hearin' the one who makes your heart sing
Finally say yes with a real good ring
It's a God thing
And on the day my Mama died
I asked the good Lord for a sign
And then the lightnin' struck
And the thunder rolled
Later on my Mama came
To visit me in a dream
And she brought God's love
And that shook my soul
Now we've all had those days
When everything falls right in place
-repeat 1st chorus-
-bridge- Mama's gone but late last night I could swear I caught her
Singin' a lullabye to her brand-new granddaughter
(2nd ch.) It must be a God thing
Walkin' by the ocean
Listenin' to the rhythm wave by wave
It's a God thing
Climbin' that mountain
Even though you didn't know you had the strength
It's a God thing
Holdin' that first-born child
You're going to find a little miracle every once in a while
It's like hearin' the one that makes your heart sing
Finally say yes with a real good ring
It's a God thing...(repeat & fade)..
