God Must Be Busy

That anchor man

Says the fight began

Somewhere in the Middle East

The world prays for peace

There's a single mom

Just got laid off when she lost a job

To some foreign hands

In some faraway land

Last night in Oklahoma

Some twister took thirteen

And they're praying that they find

The missing three

God must be busy

That highway sign

Went from slow ahead

To traffic's dead

Thought it couldn't get worse

Than that Amber Alert

They say she's four

Colorado plates, headed out-of-state

In a Chevy van

It's hard to understand

You can see it in the faces

Of all those highway strangers

They're praying that God

Keeps that girl from danger

God must be busy

And I know in the big picture

I'm just a speck of sand

And God's got better things to do

Than look out for one man

I know he's heard my prayers

'Cause he hears everything

He just ain't answered back

Or he'd bring you back to me

God must be busy

That evening news

Ain't much changed

Pretty much the same

Since I left home

Yeah that war's still on

They found that little girl

She was soaking wet

Half scared to death

On the side of some road

Them prayers work, you know

And the Bloods and Cripps are at it

And theres a killer drought down south

And old folks can't afford the drugs

They can't live without

God must be busy

And I know in the big picture

I'm just a speck of sand

And God's got better things to do

Than look out for one man

And I know he's heard my prayers

'Cause he hears every thing

He just ain't answered back

Or he'd bring you back to me

God must be busy

That anchorman

Says the fightings worse

Cities burn in the Middle East

World prays for peace
