Because Of God (feat. Tenth Avenue North)

The Young Escape

I've got sunshine and those
Blue skies through the rain
A choir inside of me sayin'
Everything's gonna be okay

Why do I got peace when it all goes sideways?
Why have faith when it don't go my way?
Why joy in the sorrow?
Why hope for tomorrow?
Because of God
Because of God

I've got a grateful song in my lungs
Because of God
Because of God
Just take a look at all that He's done (yeah)

This life we're livin'
Just a gift He's givin'
Let's give Him all the glory
Even when we don't see it

Every single good thing that we've got
It's all because of God

Oh how sweet the taste of a grace I don't deserve
Every breath responding
Grace ain't opposed to your effort but your earning

Everything I give to Him
Is everything I got from Him
I'm gonna try to list them off
For you one by one

Every good thing that I got
Has first been gifted from above
Now, that's not to say
That I don't work to believe

It's just the work is different now
It's to rest and receive
From the color of my eyes
To my laugh to my name

Can't take credit for my calling or my DNA
Now all my life
All my faith
Everything's changed
And everything's praise

Cause everything I got is because of God
