I Don't Believe It

Verse 1
There's a boy living down the street
Just as nice as you'd ever meet
And he's living with a mom and dad that don't show love at all.
Every night you can find their car
Out front of the local bar
He's been lost behind the dancing and alcohol.
Verse 2
One night he was all alone
Down the street he began to roam
Till he heard the songs in a store-front mission and went inside.
Later on when they found him there
He was down on his knees in prayer
The mom and dad knelt down beside him and they cried.
Chorus
You say "God's not there."
But I don't believe it.
When someone says He didn't hear that prayer.
You can try to debate.
But I won't believe it.
Say everything you want but I was there.
You think it'll wear off.
But I don't believe it.
For Jesus is the greatest thing to happen
In his life.
Verse 3
Now you can say what you will or won't.
And believe what you do or don't.
And be tossed about whenever there's a storm.
But there's a boy living down the street
Who remembers how it used to be.
And now his family goes to church on Sunday morn'.
