"God Did It" lyrics

Ain't nobody but God did it
There's no way around
Some things you can't explain away
Too good for me to doubt

I met him at a time when his life was breaking down
Lost his job and his wife, he was 98 pounds
On a good day, and there weren't too many of 'em
Told me he's hard to live with, much less to love him
He asked me if I'd pray, but he didn't say when
So I stopped in that parking lot and went right in
Said, "God, would You give him all the hope that You're known for?
The kind that brings dead men up from the cold floor?"
It was one year, six months to the day
That I saw him pulling up to his place
With his wife, newborn on the way
And all he really had to say was...

"Ain't nobody but God did it" (God did it)
There's no way around
Some things you can't explain away
Too good for me to doubt
Said nobody but God did it (God did it)
Showered me in love
When it looked like it was over
He went and did just what He does
God did it

Ain't nobody, ain't nobody but God did it
Ain't nobody, ain't nobody but God
Ain't nobody, ain't nobody but God did it
Ain't nobody but God did it, ain't nobody but God

Brokenhearted on the front row of my show (My show)
I see you out there hanging on, don't you let go (Let go)
Even though you don't love His timing
You still believe in the story He's writing
(So hold on) We're counting on the long game
(Hold on) You're 'bout to see the real thing
(Hold on) (Oh) And we'll be saying at the end of it all...

"Ain't nobody but God did it" (God did it)
There's no way around
Some things you can't explain away (Oh)
Too good for me to doubt
Said nobody but God did it (God did it)
Showered me in love
When it looked like it was over (Oh)
He went and did just what He does
God did it

Ain't nobody, ain't nobody but God did it
Ain't nobody, ain't nobody but God
Ain't nobody, ain't nobody but God did it
Ain't nobody but God did it, ain't nobody but God

(Mm-mm mm-mm-hmm)
When life was pushing down, prayers were going up
When life was pushing down, prayers were going up
When life was pushing down, prayers were going up
God did it, God did it
When life was pushing down, prayers were going up
When life was pushing down, prayers were going up
When life was pushing down, prayers were going up
God did it, God did it

Ain't nobody, ain't nobody but God did it
Ain't nobody, ain't nobody but God
Ain't nobody, ain't nobody but God did it
Ain't nobody but God did it, ain't nobody— (Yeah)
Ain't nobody but God, ain't nobody but God did it (God did it)
Ain't nobody but God (God did it), ain't nobody but God
Ain't nobody but God, ain't nobody but God did it
Ain't nobody but God did it, God did it

God (Yes, He did, yes, He did, yeah)
God did it (God did, yes, He did)
God (Oh, yeah, oh, yeah)
God did it, God did it
God
