Lyrics
(D) If God is love then tell me (G) why, there’s a (A7) heaven high in the (D) sky, And underground (D7) deep (G) below there’s a (A7) Hell where sinners (D) go. If God is love then tell me (G) why, He lets (A7) babies and young children (D) die before they’ve (D7) had a (G) chance at life and (A7) why he allows so much (D) strife. (D7) The (G) God I know lets us (D) choose to do (A7) as wish, win or (D) lose, (D7) and if we (G) stumble and if (D) we fall, he’s always (A7) there to catch us (D) all. If God is love then tell me why, he allows wars in foreign lands Where there is pain and misery where blood flows freely on the sand If God is love then tell me why, He lets vultures roam the skies High up above those starving below they have no food or hope you know. CHORUS If God is love then tell me why, he lets tornadoes to fill the sky And quakes that shake the ground below and make the buildings tumble down If God is love then tell me why, he allows such deformities Fatal illness and killer disease, why can’t he let us live a life of ease? CHORUS God is love this I know, not ‘cos the Bible tells me so H e has so much love for me and you, he‘ll accept us all whatever we may do So if you want him as your friend open your heart and invite him in.
