Our God is an awesome God:

Vers 1
When He rolls up His sleeves
He ain’t just puttin’ on the ritz
Our God is an awesome God
There is thunder in His footsteps
And lightning in His fists
Our God is an awesome God
And the Lord wasn’t jokin’
When He kicked ’em out of Eden
It wasn’t for no reason
That He shed His blood
His return is very close
And so you better be believin’
That our God is an awesome God

Chorus
Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom pow’r and love
Our God is an awesome God

Vers 2
When the sky was starless
In the void of the night
Our God is an awesome God
He spoke into the darkness
And created the light
Our God is an awesome God
The judgement and wrath
He poured out on Sodom
The mercy and grace
He gave us at the cross
I hope that we have not
Too quickly forgotten
That our God is an awesome God

Michael Whitaker Smith (* October 7, 1957 in Kenova, West Virginia) is an American singer and songwriter with a Christian orientation. He is married and has five children.
In 1981 Smith became songwriter of Meadowgreen Music, where he wrote some very successful gospel hits for artists like Sandi Patty, Kathy Troccoli, Bill Gaither and Amy Grant. The following year, Smith began playing as a keyboarder for Grant on the Age to Age tour. In 1983 he recorded his Grammy-nominated album Michael W. Smith Project.

In 1984 he released his second pop album and began his own tours. In 1986, he released his critically acclaimed album The Big Picture, produced by Johnny Potoker, who otherwise worked with artists such as Brian Eno, Genesis, Madonna, No Doubt and the Talking Heads.
After the release of his album i 2 (eye) in 1988, Smith again accompanied Amy Grant on her Lead Me On World tour. Released in 1999, This Is Your Time was inspired by the school massacre at Columbine High School.
Smith wrote his song There She Stands at the request of George W. Bush, with whom he had met in the White House, following the terrorist attacks in the USA on September 11, 2001. Smith played the song at the 2004 Republican Party Congress in New York City.
Smith also wrote some books.
On February 17, 2006, his film The second chance was released in American cinemas, where he makes his debut as an actor and plays a leading role.

In order to help young people, he has set up the Rocketown project, a kind of disco combined with youth work, to reach children who live in the streets without a goal in their lives.
On his 50th birthday in October 2007, his third Christmas album “It’s A Wonderful Christmas” was released, which he had recorded at Abbey Road Studios in London in the spring of that year.
In 2008, A New Hallelujah was released, a live recording of the worship concert of the same name in Houston with Israel Houghton and, among others, the African Children’s Choir as guest.
