Lyrics
Where in the world, are You God, Where in the world, are You now
the situation's pretty dark down here
Where in the world, are You God, Where in the world, are You now
We listen for Your voice, but it's not clear
I am here, alive and well, in the faces of those who offer help
I'm in the hearts of those who sacrifice, and give themselves to save another's life
but you can't stop the world I've set in motion
can't stop the rain, can't stop the ocean
Where in the world, are You God, Where in the world, are You now
so many people here, who need Your help
I have heard your cries today, I've summoned help and it's on the way
Yes, I am where I have always been, one prayer away, you say when
but you can't stop the world I've set in motion
you can't stop the waves, you can't stop the ocean
at times like this it's ok to cry
to question Me and ask Me why
but the answer's been the same throughout the years
You live in a world of dark and light
of good and evil, wrong and right
and yet I promise you my children, that there is a heaven
but heaven isn't here
Where in the world, are You God
I am here, alive and well in the faces of those who offer help
Yes, I am where I have always been, one prayer away, you say when
but you can't stop the world I've set in motion
you can't stop the rain, can't stop the ocean
where in the world, are You God
I am right here, I am still here
I am always here
