I believe in god and love

I believe in god and love

or should I say

I hope that god believes in me...

I believe in the god who made orchids and butterflies

And Mrs. Last the cleaning lady

And the first shall be Mrs. Last

Who sings as she beat as she sweeps as he cleans

I believe that god made Tony Yeboah
Score the best goal of all time
Against Liverpool at Elland road
I believe that god gave us Leeds Leeds Leeds
(That's how great he is - thank you)
He also gave us Man U
boo boo boo
I believe in the god who made mountains and cherries
I believe in the god who made reason and sunrise
I believe in the god of stillness and motorbikes
And acorns and bratwurst  
I believe in the god of patience and beauty
And licorice paper cigarettes and smoke in bubbles
I believe in the god of Persian carpet imperfection
The god who gave us our flaws
The god of lost chords
The god in your heartbeat
The Lord of all Lords
I believe that god is in snowflakes and god is in trees
That god is invisible
That god is a mountain that god is a seed
That god is my daddy that god is my mum 
That god has found us that he can restore us to sanity
That His Kingdom has come.
That god made us wholly
That god is our forge
That god gave us life
That god is our world our word our whirlwind our raindrop
our consolation our paradise
Maybe - jsut  maybe -
People who believe in god
don't believe in mere 'something' -
Or no-thing or anything
They believe in all good things
I even believe that (as brother roger told me)
if you look closely
You will come to believe that god is in hell
Whispering to the lost of us
That all shall be well and all shall be well
that all manner of things
shall be well.
