VBS Music: "If God"

This is another great song with descriptive signs that is a reminder of God's control and power in our lives. I love the thought that since God is on our side, we don't have any need to fear or worry. The author of this song, Jeff Slaughter quotes his mother who said, "If you're gonna worry, don't pray. If you're gonna pray, don't worry." What great thoughts to teach us as well as our children. I hope you'll enjoy this song...

Day 2 Song

If God

Verse 1:

If God holds my days in His hands

If God has power over my circumstance

If God knows the plans He has for me

Why should I fear?

Why should I worry?

Chorus:

If God is for me

who can be against me?

If God is for me

who can be against me?

Whatever happens I know

I can trust He is in control

‘Cause if God is for me

who can be against me?

Repeat Verse 1

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:

May the name of God be praised

Forever and ever

For wisdom and power

Belong to Him
