Clown of God

Going to work again it's another funny day
The people I work with are silly again today
I smile when I think about what God's done for me
God's joy helps me joke and to be a little silly

       That's because I'm a laughing clown of God
       I just smile all the time in God's love
       Most people don't really know my story
       It's joy unspeakable and full of glory

Going to church again it's my favorite time
The people there are my friends who help me shine
I don't like to miss a service...I need to be there
It's good to go and laugh and to know someone cares

       That's because I'm a laughing clown of God
       I just smile all the time in God's love
       Most people don't really know my story
       It's joy unspeakable and full of glory

Going home again God's blessed me with my own little room
I smile as I hear another God song in my head:

It's good to be in tune.
