God Ain't No Stained Glass Window

Written by Mark R. Germino

(As performed by Johnny Cash)



There's so much I don't know

There's so much I don't know

I don't understand why the summer's so hot

I don't understand why an apple core rots

And I have no idea when I'll see a rainbow

But there's one thing I do know



(Chorus:)

I know that God ain't no stained glass window

And I believe there is a Holy Ghost

I know that God ain't no stained glass window

'Cause He never keeps His window closed



There's so much I don't see

There's so much I don't see

I don't see how hair can turn silver-grey

I don't see why my prayers can't get answered right away

I don't see why some folks keep a load in their mind

With a sharp axe to grind



And I don't understand why the truth takes a twist

I don't understand why there is loneliness

I don't know why they claim some men have no soul

But there's one thing I do know



(Repeat chorus)



No, He never keeps His window closed
