Right Now Songtext
von Benjamin Amos

I really wish that I could help you sleep
Then you would have space and time to compete
With all this life does bring

Maybe we′ve been rich, they bless 'em, say it′s a curse
I feel this weight from the kids and it's on my chest
Oh God, where are you now?

Every time in Sunday school I ask my questions
I was silent with my words and attempted to speak with conviction

Oh God, if you're listening now, hear me out

Because you′re God of a city and you′re God of a street
I hear you in the trees, every birdsong in our heartbeat

Right now, you're better than that
Right now, this is all we′ve got
And I love it
Right now, you're better than that
Right now, this is all we′ve got
And I love it


I still think of you on winter's nights
The apple of my eye

Openly I listen to the word without understanding

You can be silent in the city, living in a state of neglection

Oh God, if you′re listening now, hear me out

Because you're God of a city and you're God of a street
I hear you in the trees, every birdsong in our heartbeat

Right now, you′re better than that
Right now, this is all we′ve got
And I love it
Right now, you're better than that
Right now, this is all we′ve got
And I love it

Right now, we're stronger
Right now, we′re stronger, it's a fact
And I love it
Right now, we′re stronger
Right now, we're stronger, it's a fact
And I love it


I still think of you on winter′s nights
The apple of my eye
