God Is Real

India Arie

The sweetest honey to the brightest flower.
The largest planet to the smallest atom.
Snowflakes and the bird kingdom.
Smaller than the eye can see,
bigger than the mind can conceive.

Heard a man on the radio today...
(Spoken) I mean I'm not going to believe in anything that I can't see
and I've been through a lot of hardships in my life,
ya know, ya know in my life.

Must confess I disagreed with what he had to say.
How could he not believe that God is real?
don't understand how he could feel that way.

When there's earth. air. water and fire.
So many different flowers, sunshine and rain showers.
So many different crystals, and hills and volcanoes.

Chorus: That's how I know that God is real
All of this is not by chance
That's how I know God is real
All of this is not by chances
That's how I know God is real
I know this is not by chance
That's how I know God is real
That's how 1 know God is real

In St. Lucia I jumped Into the water
(Spoken) It was like I was seeing for the first time.
It literally changed my life.
For the first time, I understood its power.
As 1 swam I was cleansed.
If I had any doubts, this experience cleared them.
Now I know for sure that God is real.

I know it's the truth, by the way it feels

Cause' I saw starfish and sponges,
fish shaped like trumpets,
so many different colors
I stayed out there for hours
and I only saw a fraction of a fraction
of the deepest of the deep
of the great blue wide;
it brought a tear to my eye.

We're made of the same stuff as the moon and the stars.
The oceans saltwater just like my tears are, you feel me?
The sun rises and sets everyday without fail.

Chorus: That's how I know that God is real
All of this is not by chance
That's how I know God is real
All of this is not by chance
That's how I know God is real
I know this is not by chance
That's how I know God is real
That's how I know God is real
