"When God Made Me" lyrics

"When God Made Me"

Was he thinking about my country
Or the color of my skin?
Was he thinking 'bout my religion
And the way I worshipped him?
Did he create just me in his image
Or every living thing?

When God made me
When God made me

Was he planning only for believers
Or for those who just have faith?
Did he envision all the wars
That were fought in his name?
Did he think there was only one way
To be close to him?

When God made me
When God made me

Did he give us the gift of love
To say who we could choose?

When God made me
When God made me

When God made me
When God made me

Did he give me the gift of voice
So some could silence me?
Did he give me the gift of vision
Not knowing what I might see?
Did he give me the gift of compassion
To help my fellow man?

When God made me
When God made me

When God made me
When God made me
