Hello
My wife emailed a video to me titled "The Day They Kicked God Out Of School" and I thought it was right on so I wrote a song which I think captures what the video was saying. The lyrics are below. The song is called Where Was God? Don't let the title fool you, it's a pro-God song, at least I hope it comes across that way
My wife and I are Christians and we're tired of God getting blamed when something awful happens and never getting thanks when something good does, especially after we've done nothing but tell Him to go away. I've sent the song to the people who produced the video www.afa.net I also have a website www.sonicbids.com/chrisbondy where you can hear this song and some other songs I've written.....click the "audio" button at the top

VERSE 1
They don't want you in their lives
They resist with all of their might
But they don't have to try so hard
You will not be where they will not invite
PRE CHORUS
They expect You to help when they need You
and when they don't they rarely say a prayer
They do all they can to impede you
Then they say that You're unfair
CHORUS
God is not the source
of anybody's pain
but He is usually the one
who ends up being blamed
We can be assured
if disaster struck today
there will be a multitude who'll
shake their heads and say
Where was God (2X)
Well God was where we told Him to go
away
VERSE 2
We are blessed with a freewill
You do not control or impose
When we have to learn the hard way
Most of the time it's a path we chose
(Repeat pre chorus and chorus)
BRIDGE
Why God why when God when
is usually all You hear
and when there is a thank you said
it's rarely ever sincere
(Repeat Chorus)
