God Is God

I believe in prophesy.
Some folks see things not everybody can see
and once in a while they pass the secret on to you and me.
And I believe in miracles.
Something sacred burning in every bush and tree.
We can all learn to sing the songs the angels sing.
Yeah, I believe in God and God ain't me.
I've traveled around the World.
Stood on mighty mountains and gazed across the wilderness.
Never seen a line in the sand or a diamond in the dust.
And as our fate unfurls
Everyday that passes I'm sure about a little bit less.
Even my money keps telling me it's God I need to trust.
And I believe in God, but God ain't us.
God, in my little understanding, don't care what name I call.
Whether or not I believe doesn't matter at all.
I recieve the blessings
That everyday on Earth is another chance to get it right.
Let this little light of mine shine and rage against the night.
Just another lesson.
Maybe someone's watching and wondering what I got.
Maybe this is why I'm here on Earth and maybe not.
But I believe in God and God is God.
- Joan Baez

Yes...so simple, yet so profound! These words are beautiful! What a great song! I love so much how you added the photos from the gardens to this song! Amazing grace! Really makes me think about the power behind nature and how God has made all things. Thank you!
