Live & Love

[Intro]
(Man up in the sky)
Ooh

[Verse 1]
Man up in the sky
I know that it makes You want to cry
To see the world that You put together
Changin' (Changin') just like the weather (Just like the weather)

[Chorus]
Man up in the sky
Way up above my head
I know that You can hear
Every word I say
There are those who don't believe
In what they cannot see
But I know that You are back
And You live inside of me, yeah, yeah

(Man up in the, man up in the sky)
Man up in the sky
Ooh, ooh

[Verse 2]
In Your image, You created me
You gave me thе wisdom to survive
Lord, I believе in You faithfully
While others pass You by, mmhmm yeah (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Chorus]
Man up in the sky
I know You hear my song
You'll always lead me right
When You see me going wrong
I know that You are there
Your love is everywhere
And I raise my hands to You
Man up in the sky

(Man up in the, man up in the sky)
Woah, yeah

[Bridge]
Yeah, yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Chorus]
Man up in the sky
Way up above my head
I know You always hear
Every word that's said
And I said that we need help
All of us have left
And it's all up to You
Man up in the sky

(Man up in the, man up in the sky) Yeah, yeah
Woo, hoo

[Verse 3]
Father, I'm calling on You
Father, I know You'll see me through (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Chorus]
Man up in the sky
Way up above my head
I know You'll always hear
Every word that's said
And I said that we need help
All of us have left
And it's all up to You
Man up in the sky

[Outro]
Father
Father
Father
Father
Man up in the sky, mm yeah
You're the Father of us all

Woo, Man up in the sky
Way up above my head
I know you hear every word
Every word I say
Woo
Father
Father
Father
Father
Oh, Father
Mm, yeah
Oh, yeah
Woo
