When God Paints

When God paints, birds sing

He colors every feather on a sparrow's wings

When God paints, the wind blows

With a stroke of love he dips his brush in a rainbow

Sometimes I take for granted the simple things

I can be His biggest critic when it starts to rain

There's always a bigger picture I can't explain

When God paints, the heart beats

A life begins, a season ends, and lovers meet

And I've learned that sometimes

It's not always black and white or well-defined

When God Paints

Sometimes I take for granted the simple things

I can be His biggest critic when it starts to rain

There's always a bigger picture I can't explain

When God paints, we dance

And I reach across the canvas and I take your hand

And my world is so complete

When I look at you, a masterpiece is all I see

When God paints

Sometimes I take for granted the simple things

I can be His biggest critic when it starts to rain

There's always a bigger picture I can't explain

When God paints

I pray I always see the beauty inside the frame

When God paints
