Maybe I could understand  How you called the darkness light  Maybe I could understand  How you made the waters flee  Maybe I could understand  How you gave all creation life  I'm an educated man  It's not too hard for me to see  But there's something about you  That confuses me yet  First you forgive  Then you forget  How do Lord?  Oh do, Lord, tell me  How do you do that?  How do you do that?  It's not too hard for me to see  How you stilled the raging water  Not too hard for me to see  How you walked on it like the land  It's not too hard for me to see  How you woke the sleeping daughter  I'm holding my degree  Think maybe I could understand  And I've known your forgiveness  For each and all of my days  But the way you've forgotten  Leaves me truly amazed  How do Lord?  Oh do, Lord, tell me  How do you do that?  How do you do that?  You know the hairs on my head  Yeah, you've named every star  But I'm bowing on my knee  At how forgetful you are  You forgive, you forget  You forgive then you forget...
