Story behind the song
We kick God, curse His Name, and turn our backs on Him. In return, He opens His Arms wide and takes us in.
Lyrics
IT’S A GOD THING
It’s a God thing;
A reason to sing.
It’s a God thing;
Makes church bells ring.
It’s a God thing;
What joy it brings!
It’s a God thing;
Makes my heart sing.
You teeter on the brink,
Your life is on the line.
You have no time to think;
The water tastes like wine.
A voice calls you higher;
He claims you as His own.
Carries you from the fire,
Cushions you on a throne.
How can He see
The things you do;
Then turn around
And forgive you?
It’s a God thing;
A reason to sing.
It’s a God thing;
Makes church bells ring.
It’s a God thing;
What joy it brings!
It’s a God thing;
Makes my heart sing.
Yes, you can curse His Name,
Turn away from His Word.
Take the back roads of shame,
Choose to follow the herd.
Every crime you commit,
Every lie that you tell,
Leads you toward the pit,
The very edge of Hell.
How can He see
The things you do;
Then turn around
And forgive you?
It’s a God thing;
A reason to sing.
It’s a God thing;
Makes church bells ring.
It’s a God thing;
What joy it brings!
It’s a God thing;
Makes my heart sing.
