There Is A God

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Mavis Staples] It's a dreary day and the dark cloud Hanging low over your head You just know it's gonna pour down rain Just like the weatherman said You see, I don't have no raincoat There's a hole in my roof And like a miracle, the heavens opened up And the sun come shining through [Chorus: The Staple Singers] Don't it make you feel there's a God somewhere Don't it make you feel there's a God somewhere [Verse 2: Mavis Staples] You wake up hungry and you don't know Where your next meal is coming from You'll be evicted if you don't pay your rent And money, you ain't got none Said, "Lord, Lord, won't you help me To see me through another day" Then like a miracle, you've got food to eat And somehow your rent got paid [Chorus: The Staple Singers] Don't it make you feel there's a God somewhere Don't it make you feel there's a God somewhere [Verse 3: Mavis Staples] I can't make the sunshine So you know it wasn't me Kept the rain in heaven And gave you food to eat God is love, and lovin' everywhere Making miracles happen When I hurt and they're too hard to bear [Chorus: The Staple Singers] Don't it make you feel there's a God somewhere Don't it make you feel there's a God somewhere [Outro: Mavis Staples & (The Staple Singers)] Oh, I feel it, yes I do (There's a God somewhere) I feel it, too I feel it, y'all, yeah (There's a God somewhere) I feel that man, alright All on me (There's a God somewhere) Feel Him, yeah Oh, oh (There's a God somewhere) I feel Him Then holy (There's a God somewhere) That man, y'all When I'm all alone (There's a God somewhere) Here by my side
