Words and music: Rob Frazier

I say I believe in a God of love
Then I find myself thinkin' of
All the ways I could put somebody down
Because they hurt my pride somehow

I say I believe in a God of peace
But the wars inside me never cease
How I think - the battle for my mind
How I live and how I spend my time

I say I believe in a God of grace
Then I put somebody in their place
Telling them they've crossed the line
When God forbid I should pay for my own crimes

I say I say what I believe
Do I believe the things I say'
I say my flesh has learned to die
But that's a lie
Please help me

I say I believe that we're all the same
Then I find myself placing blame
For the way things are, the mess we're in
According to the color of somebody's skin

I say I believe that the world is lost
Without the message of the cross
But still I stay inside my room
Afraid to leave the comfort zone

I say I believe in a God of grace
I say I believe in a God of peace
I say I believe in a God of love
What is believing made of'
It's not the work of human hand
It's not the work of understanding
It's a gift from heaven
I need to seize what You've given
