Letter from God Video (MV)

Went to the mailbox in my pajamas
There was a letter with a funny postmark on it
No return address, junk mail I guessed
But I opened it anyway

It was written in a beautiful hand
Words so simple a child could understand
Almost spilled my coffee when the truth dawned on me
And "Oh my God" was all that I could say

And it said "this is a letter from God
I know it's out of the blue
But I've had my eye on you
And I've seen you struggle lately
With the way the world is goin' crazy
And I've felt you giving up
So I thought I'd get in touch
There's not a moment you're alone
I still love you like my own
I know there's work to do
But I've got faith in you
So please don't give up on me"

Laid down my letter to catch my breath
The room was spinnin' and I felt light in the head
Why would he write to me? What's so special 'bout me?
I can't heal this broken world with all its broken hearts

But I kept on readin' through a cloud of tears
Half from curiosity and half outta fear
It was like he knew me, could see right through me
Wanted me to know how beautiful we are

And he said "this is a letter from God
I love you with all my might
Red and yellow, black and white
And I need you more than ever
To bring my children back together
Just remember that it starts
In each and every person's heart
We've been through this before
Feed the hungry, help the poor
Turn the other cheek
Love your enemies
And please remember to forgive"

Then I woke up in a tangled bed
Tears on my pillow and those words in my head
A little confused but with a new sense of hope
If he's not givin' up on us then I sure won't
Thought I was doin' pretty good but I can do better
I might have been dreamin' but I'm still believin'
I got a letter, I got a letter from God
