G-D Don’t Have To Teach You This Way Lyrics by Peter Himmelman

From Strength to Strength

1991

[Verse 1]
Hey my brother, though we have but one mother
We're standing on different ends of the world
We’ve got some sad news, we've got some bad blues
Like a flag of darkness' been unfurled
I’ve got a question, you've got a lesson
Ain't there one word that I can say
Well, I'm screaming to the skies, I'm cryin' out my eyes
Singing God don't have to teach you this way
[Verse 2]
Hey my brother, think I've finally discoverеd
That some things just can’t be understood
And so hard as wе try, we can only rely on the fact that everything is for the good
Well, listen to me now though I can’t pretend to know just how
I'm gonna leave these flesh and bones and start to pray
Well, I’m screaming to the one, I'm pleading for your son
Singing God don't have to teach you this way
[Chorus]
Though our faith is still together, still it's too large a price to pay
I see you reach for reasons why I see you break on down and cry
But, God don’t have to teach you this way
[Verse 3]
Hey, my brother, we've come from just one mother
We share the blood of ages past
Don't you know that I am near you
Don't you know that I can hear you
And the bond forged between us is made to last
Though this world may seem bitter-cold, it don't stay that way, I'm told
For the sun is gonna shine on us one day
But I scream until I shake, sayin' there must be some mistake
But God don't have to teach you this way
