When God Paints Songtext
von Alan Jackson

When God paints, birds sing
He colors every feather on a sparrow′s wings
When God paints, the wind blows
With a stroke of love he dips his brush in a rainbow

Sometimes I take for granted the simple things
I can be His biggest critic when it starts to rain
There's always a bigger picture I can′t explain

When God paints, the heart beats
A life begins, a season ends, and lovers meet
And I've learned that sometimes
It's not always black and white or well-defined
When God Paints


Sometimes I take for granted the simple things
I can be His biggest critic when it starts to rain
There′s always a bigger picture I can′t explain

When God paints, we dance
And I reach across the canvas and I take your hand
And my world is so complete
When I look at you, a masterpiece is all I see
When God paints

Sometimes I take for granted the simple things
I can be His biggest critic when it starts to rain
There's always a bigger picture I can′t explain
When God paints

I pray I always see the beauty inside the frame
When God paints
