Dear God Lyrics - Rarities, B-sides, And Other Stuff - Sarah Mclachlan

Dear God 

Hope you got the letter and... 

I pray you can make it better down here 

I don't mean a big reduction in the price of beer 

But all the people that you made in your image 

See them starving on their feet 

'Cause they don't get enough to eat 

From God 

I can't believe in you 

Dear God 

Sorry to disturb you but... 

I feel that I should be hear loud and clear 

We all need a big reduction 

In the amount of tears 

And all the people that you made in your image 

See them fighting in the street 

'Cause they can't make opinions meet about God 

I can't believe in you 

Did you make disease 

And the diamond blue? 

Did you make mankind 

After we made you? 

And the devil too? 

Dear God, 

Don't know if you noticed but... 

Your name is on a lot of quotes in this book 

And as crazy humans wrote it 

You should take a look 

And all the people that you made in your image 

Still believing that junk is true 

Well I know it ain't and so do you, dear God 

I can't believe in 

I don't believe in 

I won't believe in heaven and hell 

No saints no sinners no devil as well 

No pearly gate no thorny crown 

You're always letting us humans down 

The wars you bring 

The babes you drown 

Those lost at sea and never found 

And it's all the same the whole world round 

The hurt I see helps to compound 

That Father, Son, and Holy Ghost 

Is just somebody's unholy hoax 

And if you're up there you'd perceive 

That my heart's here upon my sleeve 

If there's one thing I don't believe in... 

It's you, dear God.
