Well, who's that man who thinks He's a prophet? 
Well, I wonder if He's got something up His sleeve 
Where's He from? Who is His daddy? 
There's rumors He even thinks Himself a king 
Of a kingdom of paupers 
Simpletons and rogues 
The whores all seem to love Him 
And the drunks propose a toast 

And they say, "Surely God is with us. 
Well, surely God is with us." 
They say, "Surely God is with us today!" 

Who's that man who says He's a preacher? 
Well, He must be, He's disturbing all our peace 
Where's He get off, and what is He hiding 
And every word He says those fools believe 
Who could move a mountain 
Who would love their enemy 
Who could rejoice in pain 
And turn the other cheek 

And still say, "Surely God is with us, 
Well, surely God is with us," 
Who'll say, "Surely God is with us today, today!" 

They say, "Surely God is with us 
Well, surely God is with us" 
They say, "Surely God is with us" 

Blessed are the poor in spirit 
Heaven belongs to them 
Blessed are those who make peace 
They are God's children 
I Am the Bread of Life, and the Way" 
You hear that Man, believe what He says! 

Tell me, who's that Man, they made Him a prisoner 
They tortured Him and nailed Him to a tree 
Well if He's so bad, who did He threaten? 
Did He deserve to die between two thieves? 
See the scars and touch His wounds 
He's risen flesh and bone 
Now the sinners have become the saints 
And the lost have all come home 

And they say, "Surely God is with us (Surely God is with us) 
Well, surely God is with us," 
They say, "Surely God is with us today!" (Today!) 

They say, "Surely God is with us 
Well, surely God is with us" 
They say, "Surely God is with us today"
