It's All About Us - Lyrics For A Song

It's All About Us


Melody and Lyrics By Bill Dahl

ALL Rights Reserved 2007

Instrumental Intro:



He provides the air we breathe
He provides the light we see
The source of our community
We praise Him for this reality…


Chorus: (Spread your arms wide when you sing 'us.' Point up when you sing 'God,' to the person next to you at 'You' and to yourself when you sing 'Me.' ).


It's all about us!
It’s all about God, you and me.
It's the way God designed us,
The way it's supposed be.

It's all about us!
It’s all about God you and me!
He’s here to guide us,
To become all we can be.
It's all about us!


He adores our diversity
He forgives our iniquity
We’re the ones the world can see
Reflections of His majesty…


Chorus: (Spread your arms wide when you sing 'us.' Point up when you sing 'God,' to the person next to you at 'You' and to yourself when you sing 'Me.' ).



It's all about us!
It’s all about God, you and me.
It's the way God designed us,
The way it's gotta be.

It's all about us!
It’s all about God, you and me!
He’s here to refine us,
To become all we can be.
It's all about us!


Weeping over all forms of poverty
Those suffering from every infirmity
You’re the comfort beyond every tragedy
Open our hearts so we may see…


Chorus: (Spread your arms wide when you sing 'us.' Point up when you sing 'God,' to the person next to you at 'You' and to yourself when you sing 'Me.' ).



It's all about us!
It’s all about God, you and me.
It's the way God designed us,
The way it's supposed to be.

It's all about us!
It’s all about God, you and me!
He’s here to remind us,
To become all we can be.
It's all about
us!

We’re the ones that Your children meet
Transform us God --- we’re incomplete
Help us to become
Your heart, hands, and feet…


Chorus: (Spread your arms wide when you sing 'us.' Point up when you sing 'God,' to the person next to you at 'You' and to yourself when you sing 'Me.' ).


It's all about us!
It’s all about God, you and me.
It's the way God designed us,
The way it's gotta to be.

It's all about us!
It’s all about God, you and me!
He’s here to refine us,
To become all we can be.

It's all about us!


Today we pray that You will restore us
Prepared for this day before us
Accept our praise as we sing this chorus


Chorus: (Spread your arms wide when you sing 'us.' Point up when you sing 'God,' to the person next to you at 'You' and to yourself when you sing 'Me.' ).


It's all about us!
It’s all about God, you and me.
It's the way God designed us,
The way it's supposed to be.

It's all about us!
It’s all about God, you and me!
He’s here to guide us,
To become all we can be.

It's all about us!
