Baez, Joan - God Is God Lyrics






I believe in prophecy.
Some folks see things not everybody can see.
And,once in a while,they pass the secret along 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,
Every day that passes I'm sure about a little bit less.
Even my money keeps 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 receive the blessings.
That every day on Earth's 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.
Chorus:
But I believe in God, and God is God.

    God Bless you Joan 😍. ...Remember Your Catholic roots always

    J.... ....

    Ask your parish priest , how do I get to heaven? If he says, I don't know, then run as fast as you can away from those roots, and find a bible that tells you, how to be born again. Signed, an ex catholic.

    Trump is God ! T rump is wonderful cleaning up the garbage of Obama and the Bushes !

    s.... ....

    If Trump is God, I really fear the devil.

  16. a.... e....

    loved her since 1966

  17. R.... S....

    Good... good, do that. Go to everything like it's about to be. So what's ever was, always is. And love is like time and ocean waves comfort me.

  18. M.... A....

    I been a fan of her since 1967, and it ended with this song.Saw her in concert in Australia 2016 or 17 can't remember, where she sang this song, didn't get a big applause, finished the concert with, Imagine by John Lennon. Just what does she believe.

  19. t.... b....

    I absolutely love Joan Baez, but her messages were so much stronger when they didn't involve God. We share a common humanity, atheists, believers and all. Her secular songs such as "Be Not Too Hard", and "There But For Fortune", speak to all.

  20. S.... W....

    There are two books about GOD, the first are The Vedas, the older, and the Bible, that one has been manipulated by kings and other lost souls for their own gain... The Vedas teaches Love completely, super consciousness, that GOD lives inside every living thing, truth..

    S.... W....

    There are also oral traditions that don't need books to understand the Devine.

  21. U.... ....

    Helps my depression. Thank God, for creating Joan. I could only listen to her voice when Im sad. Maybe because she's honest and has the voice of an angel. More young ppl should listen to songs like this:').

    U.... ....

    You wouldn't have depression if a good god existed ;)

    U.... ....

    Covfefe27PL it still helps me

    U.... ....

    Many people credit their faith in God in helping them though various life struggles. Your attempt at promoting your Atheist path as superior to her path isn't  loving, compassionate, or helpful. You have your path she has hers.

  22. J.... B....

    Can't wait to see her in march in Dublin!

  23. J.... B....

    Everybody was in love with her in the 60's her look her voice.. the most beautiful woman in my opinion! Thank you joan!

    the struggle continues till all people love eachother

    T.... F....

    Not only each other but every living thing spinning on this little planet including the atmosphere and water and earth for all these things are living entities needing natural for existence... Damn fossil fuels, Damn money, Damn your little ego that wants more money, Damn hate and pollution, the two things that need eliminated off the face of this little living planet. GOD is Love, so act accordingly NOW.

  39. y.... y....

    She never changed

    y.... y....

    No, she's remained firm in her beliefs, religious as well as secular. Something to keep in our mind and keep us inspired no matter what challenges we may come upon -- and they are plenty and multiplying as the time goes by.

  40. p.... ....

    yep, still sucks

    p.... ....

    So do you.

  41. K.... G....

    I so admire you Joan Baez!!!

  42. K.... G....

    Excellent Joan, God Bless You more than any words could ever say!

  43. C.... E....

    Wow this women is absolutetly stunning, her message is so touching! Not only because she stood up for the Civil Rights Movement. She is such a good person.

  44. R.... Z....

    Joan hugs bless you !!!!!

  45. p.... ....

    GOD she sucks

    p.... ....

    Did you?

    p.... ....

    Maravi Yoso no, and I don't believe in miracles either

    p.... ....

    No wonder you don't believe in miracles, they happen only to those who do believe

    p.... ....

    So what? who cares?  Seems like you have a great need to tell people how great you are. Joan Baez has one of the most beautiful voices of any singer of any genre. You (self proclaimed) are good at your job. I am not going to thank you for doing your job. I would thank Joan Baez for making the world a more beautiful place. There are many people who do what you do...and probably better than you do it who don't feel the need to tell anyone about it like you do.. There is only ONE Joan Baez.

    p.... ....

    plainlogic, cure for cancer? I'd much rather take her music. Life without music would suck, and her voice is sooo beautiful. I'm an atheist and I know miracles are bullshit, so it's not my favourite song, but I still love her.

  46. F.... &....

    Beautiful music, beautiful woman still!

  47. R.... W....

    Thank you! I am so glad to have heard this.

    Bravo forever, Joan Baez!

  48. S.... Y....

    When the devil grows old he turns religious :-)

    S.... Y....

    That's complete nonsense as is also the devil who inspires you to say profanities such as this. Joan Baez AND Bob Dylan were ALAWAY DEVOUT and OPEN ABOUT IT.

    S.... Y....

    The devil doesn't grow old, he just grows stronger the more people disbelieve in him.

  49. P.... i....

    BELIEVE IN HIM
    John 14:6 JESUS saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. AMEN

    P.... i....

    do you believe in everything you read in books? ;)

  50. J.... J....

    She's still great!

  51. D.... S....

    Even if you don't sing,  suave Joan, the image of YOU  touches deeply my soul, and my heart too!.....Thanks to exist, sweert creature, for me and for all Mankind!....My warm CIAO from Rome, hermana dulce de Dios!

    D.... S....

    Damiano, me too! To me she's royalty. She's been singing from her heart for a long time....and yes, I'm filled with delight she's still singing it out loud.

    how come these big (music) names don't do YouTube videos showing them Q-U-I-E-T-L-Y sleeping in Tilden Park, Briones Regional Park, Wildcat Canyon, & Mt' Diablo?!...... regional parks that the average person can HIKE into at night, for the weekend!..... EVERYBODY is 'hot' on Native Americans, Rastafarians, & spotted owls, but NONE of our so-called leaders 'shuts their loud traps' and just hang-out in the woods! ever notice that during the BEACH BOYS era, you never got to see parties (simply!) sleeping on the beach?! as AMERICAN as apple pie!..... what happened to the (hippie) Rolling Stones members? remember when PAUL MacCARTNEY did a (back-to-the-land) album cover?!..... bob dylan?! :-0
