Verse 1
When on earth, God is a practical God
in the hearts of man.
In heaven He’s the Master,
ruling over everything.
Verse 2
He’s climbed the mountains
and waded through the rivers.
He has drifted in and out
through the place where people live.
Chorus
God is up in heaven, and on earth He resides.
He’s among all creation, amidst the myriads of mankind.
Man can touch God every day, man can see Him every day.
Verse 3
Who dares to oppose practical God
and break out from His reign?
Who dares to assert that He’s in heaven,
beyond the shadow of doubt?
Verse 4
Who dares assert that God
for certain exists on earth?
In all humanity, none can say
or describe where God dwells.
Chorus
God is up in heaven, and on earth He resides.
He’s among all creation, amidst the myriads of mankind.
Man can touch God every day, man can see Him every day.
Bridge
Could it be when in heaven, He’s a supernatural God?
Could it be when God’s on earth, He is practical God Himself?
Ruling all creation or tasting human suffering,
can these determine He’s practical God Himself?
Chorus
God is up in heaven (God is in heaven),
and on earth He resides (and on earth He resides).
He’s among all creation (all creation),
amidst the myriads of mankind.
Man can touch God every day (man can touch Him every day),
man can see Him every day (every day).
Outro
God is in heaven, and on earth He resides.
