it was an act of god this old world was not an accident it came to be by the touch of his hand through his love he formed creation then reached out and breathed his life into man yes for all of us he is calling us with his blessings to show the best part of it is the heart of it it s the good news we know chorus every time the sun shows his face every time i ve needed his grace every little bird in the air never will escape from his care he arose again he defeated sin and he shed his blood for me it was an act of god now we hear such strange philosophies from those who teach we expect them to know but they push god out of the picture when his presence is quite obvious only fools deny him so and in all of us there s a call in us for the truth to be shown yes the heart of it every part of it is from god s highest throne repeat chorus was it an act of god causing you to turn him away is it an act of god that you re refusing to pray it was an act of god opening the blind eyes to see it is an act of god what he is doing for me repeat chorus i know he arose again he defeated sin and he s coming back for me it is an act of god oh it it is an act of god
