Lyrics
If God were a dancer
I would worship as her clothes fell to her feet
She would empty out my pockets, take the money, laugh, and give it back to me
Every time she touches me I would touched by grace
It would be so hard to keep me focused on her face
That's why I love God
That's why I love God
If God were an artist
There would be nothing that he could not create
Every school and style, born of earth, and wood and metal, pen and paint
Art to make me feel and think and dream of other lands
Some of his most brilliant work I'll never understand
That's why I love God
That's why I love God
If God were a writer
He would write the longest epoch of all time
But no one would be bored and we'd see our very lives in every line
The good guys are the bad guys and the heroes are a mess
The story's always taking turns no one could ever guess
That's why I love God
That's why I love God
