Church on the corner, my home town A lot of roses and rice, and joy all around A rented tux and an ivory dress And a white limousine at the bottom of the steps Just down the street, another church A spray of carnations, and a long black hearse Family and friends, tears in their eyes It's never easy saying goodbye And I realized in two blocks time. You're the same God, When joy floods the heart, when life falls apart. You're the same God, When hope shines like the sun, when dreams come undone. When we're blessed, when we're broken, You're there in each moment, the constant in every change. You're the same God! It's easy to see in this life of mine In only a blink it turns on a dime A day that was sunny is suddenly dim And I'm wrestling my fears and my failures again I am "If's" and I'm "Maybe's" tossing in the wind I am shifting sand and even then,... You're the same God, When joy floods the heart, when life falls apart. You're the same God, When hope shines like the sun, when dreams come undone. When we're blessed, when we're broken, You're there in each moment, the constant in every change. You're the same God! When we're blessed, when we're broken, You're there in each moment, the constant in every change. In all things You remain. You're the same God! END
