Thread Name: Lyr Add: God Is God (Steven Curtis Chapman)
Subject: Chords Add: GOD IS GOD (Steven Curtis Chapman)
Since there is a different thread for Steve Earle's song "God Is God" and the discussion already seemed to involve some confusion with Steven Curtis Chapman's song of the same title, I thought I'd post the Chapman song lyrics and chords in a separate thread.


God Is God
(Steven Curtis Chapman)

And the pain falls like a cu((Bbm)*)rtain
On the things I once called ce(((F)#))rtain
And I have to say the wo((Bbm))rds I fear the mo((G#))st,         
I just don't kn(F#)ow.

        
And the questions without an((Bbm)swers
Come and paralyze the da        (F#)nicer,
                So I stand here on the st(Bbm)tage afraid to mo(G#)ve,         
                Afraid to f(F#)all, oh, but         (C#/F)fall I must
                On this tr(E)uth, that my life has been fo(A)rmed from the dust.

Chorus:
(C#)God is God and I am n(Bbm)ot.
I can o(G#)nly see a pa(F#) rt of the pi(E)cture He's pai(B/D#)nting.
(C#)God is God and I am m(Bbm)an,
So I'll ne(G#)ver underst(F)#)and it all,
For o(E)*nly Go(B/D#)d is Go(C#)d

And the sky begins to thunder
And I'm filled with awe and wonder,
‘Till the only burning question that remains
Is "Who am I?"

Can I form a single mountain,
Take the stars in hand and count them?
Can I even take a breath without God giving it to me?
He is first and last, before all that has been,
Beyond all that will pass.

                
Oh, how gr(A)eat are the riches of His wi(B)sdom and knowledge!
How unse(C#m)archable, for to H(A)im and through (F#m) Him
And from (D5)Him are all th(B5)ins.
So (C#m) let us worship be(F)fore the throne
Of the O(E)ne who is worthy of worship (A)alone.

(Chorus)
