Anne Wilson's song 'God Thing' celebrates the unmistakable work of God in everyday life. She reflects on personal experiences—like a changed life, unexpected provision, and healing—that can only be explained as divine intervention. The lyrics acknowledge moments of doubt but affirm that God consistently shows up with 'brand new mercies every sunrise.' Drawing from the biblical imagery of cloud by day and fire by night, the song emphasizes that when a sinner becomes a saint or a miracle occurs, it's clearly a God thing. It's an upbeat declaration of faith and gratitude for God's constant presence and supernatural acts.

I've seen a bad man change his ways
Seen a woman get some healing on her dying day
Had no money in my pocket
Found a hundred in my wallet
Just in time for me to get the bills paid
Some things you can't explain
Even though they happen every day
Don't say it ain't a God thing
Don't say it ain't a miracle
It's so obvious when He does His stuff
It's not anyone else but Him
When you see a life change
It's something supernatural
Anytime a sinner becomes a saint
Yeah, it's a God thing
I hate drawing that short straw, it don't feel fair
And I get to wondering if He is even there
But then He does something that I never saw coming
Kinda funny how we think it's so rare
Some things you can't explain
Even though they happen every day
Don't say it ain't a God thing
Don't say it ain't a miracle
It's so obvious when He does His stuff
It's not anyone else but Him
When you see a life change
It's something supernatural
Anytime a sinner becomes a saint
Yeah, it's a God thing (Oh yeah)
Yeah, it's a God thing
Cloud by day, fire by night
He's been showing up all my life
Brand new mercies every sunrise
Too many miracles to deny
Don't say it ain't a God thing
Don't say it ain't a miracle
It's so obvious when He does His stuff
It's not anyone else but Him
When you see a life change
It's something supernatural (Supernatural)
Anytime a sinner becomes a saint
Yeah, it's a God thing
Cloud by day, fire by night
He's been showing up all my life
Brand new mercies every sunrise
Yeah, it's a God thing
It's a God thing
