| You could offer me patients or violence
|
| You could offer me blood or peace
|
| In a letter let me know when it’s over
|
| Just keep it far away from me You could end him, you could let him go He’s just a criminal I don’t know
|
| You could hang him, you could set him free
|
| As long as he don’t sit next to me God is gracious, god is good, he’ll understand
|
| God is gracious, god is good, it’s in his hands
|
| God is gracious, god is good, this god of mine
|
| And if your god met my god we’d be alright
|
| You could fill every mouth on the planet
|
| Or send me news of death toll highs
|
| You could tell me how to make a difference
|
| Not now, I’ve got plans tonight
|
| You could swing from an arrow or olive branch
|
| You could hang from the status quo
|
| You could offer me a heart for bravery
|
| As long as I don’t have to go God is gracious, god is good, he’ll understand
|
| God is gracious, god is good, it’s in his hands
|
| God is gracious, god is good, this god of mine
|
| And if your god met my god we’d be all right |
