god is a dj
Scotty Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This is my church
This is where I heal my hurt
It's a natural grace
Of watching young life shape
It's in minor keys
Solutions and remedies
Enemies becoming friends
When bitterness ends

This is my church
This is my church
This is my church

This is my church
This is where I heal my hurt
It's in the world I become
Content in the hum
Between voice and drum
It's in change
The poetic justice of cause and effect
Respect, love, compassion
This is my church
This is where I heal my hurt
For tonight
God is a DJ
God is a DJ
God is a DJ

This is my church




This is my church
This is my church
