Way back in the beginning Long before God gave the law He looked down on us from heaven Sin was all He saw Cause everyone was evil The whole race had gone insane The Bible says it grieved Him And His heart was filled with pain Before Jesus raised up Lazarus When all his friends were standin' 'round Jesus hurt inside so badly When all the tears were comin' down Lookin' out over Jerusalem Was just days before He died The pain kept gettin' deeper Until He broke down and cried And sometimes I wonder When I think of all the sin we choose He looks down on all this twisted world Does God still get the blues? Even when we break His heart I believe He keeps it to Himself He knows most of us are so full o' guilt He won't add on somethin' else He just keeps on, keeps on givin' All His blessings from above Waiting for the moment We'll return some of His love And sometimes I wonder
(oooh, sometimes I wonder) Think of all the gifts we refuse (oooh, sometimes I wonder) When He looked down on us from heaven Does God still get the blues? (Does God still get the blues?) Jesus gave His life, His word and His name To me and you Restin' in the Holy Spirit Is really that we need to do But instead we prefer our traditions And we all tell Him that He lied And we claim Him for our misery Our blindness and our pride And sometimes I wonder (oooh, sometimes I wonder) When I see, I see the God-less lives we choose Just how much we grieve the Spirit Does God still get the blues? (Does God still get the blues?) And sometimes I wonder (oooh, don't ya wonder?) When I see the lives of the abused (oooh, don't ya wonder?) Just how much we grieved His Holy Spirit Does God still get the blues? (Does God still get the blues?) ©1992 Star Song Records
