Flash, flash!
Jack just got the news
God is alive! God is alive!
CHORUS:
Whoa, oh! {x3}
God is alive
News is comin' like a hurricane
Comin' down hard on those who live in vain
Treatin' each other funky when U know we're all the same
God is alive, this is not a game
CHORUS
(He's alive)
News is comin' like a dog in heat
He's lookin' 4 soldiers with strong feet
That can dance on whoever can't say His name
God is alive, this is not a game (Listen)
CHORUS
(Listen)
(Yeah, I'm a witness)
(Do U believe?) (U know it)
All of His children come take a blissy ride
4 all who see Him, 4 all He lives inside
U can be so happy, purely satisfied
God is alive
Live, live!
One step at a time, we need a new rhyme (Alive)
Up with education, down with crime
Alive!
CHORUS
(God is alive!)
Live, live!
God is alive! {x5}
(CHORUS) {repeat parts in BG}
Oh yeah
Woke me up this morning
Started me on my day
Got my health and strength, y'all
I can truly say
Ooh, He's alive! Well
Ah, He's alive!
All over me
Ah, He's alive!
I'm a livin' witness
That God's alive!
I'm a livin' witness He's alive!
Do U believe that He's alive?
Do U believe, oh, He's alive?
Ooh, yes He is
Sho'nuff He is, well
Yes He is
Each breath I breathe lets me know
Every step I take lets me know
Every song I sing, oh, lets me know
Oh, God is alive!
Whoa, oh
