Because of God
by The Young Escape, Tenth Avenue North

Album: Because of God - Single

I've got sunshine and those
Blue skies through the rain
A choir inside of me singin'
Everything's gonna be okay

Why do I got peace when it all goes sideways?
Why have faith when it don't go my way?
Why joy in the sorrow?
Why hope for tomorrow?

Because of God
Because of God
I've got a grateful song in my lungs
Because of God
Because of God
Just take a look at all that He's done (yeah)
This life we're livin'
Just a gift He's givin'
Let's give Him all the glory
Even when we don't see it
Every single good thing that we've got
It's all because of God

Because yeah, because yeah

Oh how sweet the taste of a grace I don't deserve
Every breath responding
Grace ain't opposed to the effort but the earning

Why do I got peace when it all goes sideways?
Why have faith when it don't go my way?
Why joy in the sorrow?
Why hope for tomorrow?

Because of God
Because of God
I've got a grateful song in my lungs
Because of God
Because of God
Just take a look at all that He's done (yeah)
This life we're livin'
Just a gift He's givin'
Let's give Him all the glory
Even when we don't see it
Every single good thing that we've got
It's all because of God

Look at what he's done
Everything I give to Him
Is everything I got from Him
I'm gonna try to list them off
For you one by one
Every good thing that I got
Has first been gifted from above
Now, that's not to say
That I don't work to believe
It's just the work is different now
It's to rest and receive
From the color of my eyes
To my laugh to my name
Can't take credit for my calling or my DNA
Now all my life
All my faith
Everything's changed
And everything's praise
Cause everything I got is because of God

Because of God
Because of God
I've got a grateful song in my lungs

Because of God
Because of God
Just take a look at all that He's done (yeah)
This life we're livin'
Just a gift He's givin'
Let's give Him all the glory
Even when we don't see it
Every single good thing that we've got
It's all because of God

(Because)
(Because)
(Because)
Because of God
(Because)
(Because)
(Because)

Why do I got peace when it all goes sideways?
Why have faith when it don't go my way?
Why joy in the sorrow?
Why hope for tomorrow?
