He made the night, He made the day
Spread the earth upon the waters
Made the heavens and the rain
Look at the sky, see His design
The very same Creator is the one who gave us life

And what is man that He's mindful of us
We're merely clay in His hands
And what am I that He loves me so much
He would die

All that I can say is, 
It's God, truly God
Can you see, can you hear
Can you touch, can you feel
It's God, truly God
I can't explain any other way
'Cause it's God

Inside us all there is a void
All mankind is searching 
For the one who fills the soul
In Him there's hope, in Him there's life
The Lord Christ the Saviour 
Is right before your eyes

And what is man that He takes us in
As His children, to be His own
And what are we that He wants to be our Father?
All that I can say is

It's God, truly God
Can you see, can you hear
Can you touch, can you feel
It's God, truly God

I can't explain any other way
'Cause it's God, truly God
Can you see, can you hear
Can you touch, can you feel

It's God, truly God
I can't explain any other way 
'Cause it's God

Lord I praise You for Your endless love
Your boundless grace extended to me

God, truly God
I can't explain any other way

'Cause it's God, truly God
Can you see, can you hear
Can you touch, can you feel
It's God, truly God

I can't explain any other way 
'Cause it's God, truly God
It's God, truly God
It's God, truly God

I can't explain any other way 
'Cause it's God
