Just wanted to share the basic, beautiful lyrics to a song I ran across today. Not to mention, the link to the awesome music video! These words may seem simple…silly even. But, while listening to the music, it brought me back to a state of child-like wonder. In our attempt to “figure everything out”, we seem to make everything twice as complicated. So sit back, put on a smile, and enjoy the simplicity of this light-hearted truth. :)

God Is Not A White Man
by Gungor
God is not a man
God is not a white man
God is not a man sitting on a cloud
God cannot be bought
God will not be boxed in
God will not be owned by religion
But God is love, God is love, and He loves everyone
God is love, God is love, and He loves everyone
God is not a man
God is not an old man
God does not belong to Republicans
God is not a flag
Not even American
And God does not depend on a government
But God is good, God is good, and He loves everyone
God is good, God is good, and He loves everyone
Atheists and Charlatans and Communists and Lesbians
And even old Pat Robertson, oh God He loves us all
Catholic or Protestant, Terrorist or President
Everybody, love
Oh, la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Yeah, I say God is love, God is love, and He loves everyone
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Stop the hating, please just stop the hating now cause God is love
Oh, whoa, la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
I love that you posted this. I work with several organizations trying to convey the same message, and I always come back to this song. So simple and so true. It’s a message the world (especially the USA) needs to hear…
