There Is A God by The Staple Singers 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
