GOD'S EXPLOSIONS
Author(s): Michael Mountain
Songbook: Love Songs Songbook
KeyWords: Comfort,

That spark of inspiration
That lights that special fuse
Of the bomb of great accomplishment,
Ignites the precious few.
Ordained by God's own power
Pent up within their souls,
They wait for perfect timing
To really let her blow.
Sometimes they wait a lifetime
Before that fateful hour
To burst in blaze and glory
And light the sky with showers.
They change the course of history,
Fulfilling God's own plan,
And echo through the ages
To inspire the heart of man.

Job, the suffering psalmist,
Was such a thunder bolt
Encouraging countless millions
With his faith inspired prose.
Noah burst his bombshell
On the crest of raging tides
When the flood of God's great judgement
Hurled a holocaust worldwide.
Abraham, the faithful,
Hit the road and left his land,
When he heard the Lord's commandment
Though he did not understand.
His faith began the battle
That will win the victory
When the Lord's last fearless soldiers
Fight and die for liberty.

Chorus:
Change the course of history,
Listen to the Lord.
Heavenly explosions
Echo around the world.

The king and psalmist David
Was a ruddy homemade bomb
As he smashed that burly giant,
As he praised the Lord in song.
And Jesus blew the darkness
Back to hell where it came from,
And He died to set us free and
Blow us back to Kingdom come.
And God is still exploding,
And His bombs are still around,
And like all His kings and prophets,
We can't help but make a sound.
We'll blow like Krakatoa
If you try to shut us up
'Cause we're filled with God's hot Spirit
And exploding with His love.

[Repeat chorus three times]
