God Must Be Busy

That anchor man says the fight began
Somewhere in the
Middle East, world prays for peace
There's a single mom just got laid off when they lost a job
To some foreign hands, 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
At 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 there’s 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 everything
He just ain't answered back or he'd bring you back to me
God must be busy
That anchorman says the fighting's worse
Cities burn in the
Middle East, world prays for peace
