When God Made Me

Was he thinking about my country

Or the color of my skin

Was he thinking about my religion

And the way I worshipped him

Did he create just me in his image

Or every living thing

When God made me

When God made me

Was he planning only for believers

Or for those who just had faith

Did he envision all wars

That were fought in his name

Did he say there was only one way

To be close to him

When God made me

When God made me

Did he give me the gift of love

To say who I could choose

When God made me

When God made me

When God made me

Did he give me the gift of voice

So some could silence me

Did he give me the gift of vision

Not knowing what I might see

Did he give me the gift of compassion

To help my fellow man

When God made me

When God made me

When God made me
