I came up with this hook and the rest of the lyric just kind of wrote itself with God as my cowriter :) I knew this needed a rockin melody and brought in Jeff to cowrite the melody with me and we had that worked out in a weekend! Gina Paoni did the Awesome demo!

Demo by Gina Paoni-Wow!!!

Intro

Hey Yeah Yeah Yeah

Verse 1
As I look around this world I see less and less of you
took you from the work place and the classrooms of our youth
now they even wanna take you out of Christmas too

Verse 2
There's so many places we can't say your name out loud
display a cross in our front yard or say a prayer with our heads bowed
sure feels a whole lot like someone don't want you around

PreChorus
And they say Where's God?
oh oh oh Where's God?
Where is God?

Chorus
and they say Where's God in the face of tragedy
Where's God when they're shooting up our schools
they say Where's God have you forgotten me too
I think we've forgotten you

Verse 3
Seems like in God we trust has all but up and gone
maybe that's why a dollar ain't worth the paper it's printed on
and we're bailing out wall street feels like our priorities are wrong

Repeat Pre Chorus and Chorus

Bridge
Cause I know you're never early and I know you're never late
but please Lord we need you right now down here in the USA
Wanna hear them say

Revised Chorus
There's God good came from tragedy
There's God they're praying in our schools
they'll say there's God I know he loves me too
and I know we love you

TAG (fade out)
Oh There's God
Oh oh oh There's God
There is God
