140. God Is a God

Refrain:
God is a God!
God don't never change!
God is a God
An' He always will be God!

1 He made the sun to shine by day,
He made the sun to show the way,
He made the stars to show their light,
He made the moon to shine by night, sayin' [Refrain]

2 The earth his footstool an' heav'n his throne,
The whole creation all His own,
His love an' power will prevail,
His promises will never fail, sayin' [Refrain]
