Louis Armstrong
They Say I Look Like God
[Verse 1]
(God created man in his image and likeness)
They say I look like God
(In the image of God created He them)
Could God be black? My God
(In the image of God created He them)
If all are made in the image of Thee
(Male and female created He them)
Could Thou perchance a zebra be?
(Hallelujah)
(In the image and likeness of God)
Can it be?
(Hallelujah)
(Created He them)
No, not He
(Hallelujah)
(These are the generations of the heavens)
He's watching all the earth
(These are the generations of the heavens and the earth)
He's watched us from our birth
(And God saw everything that He had made)
And if He cared if you're black or white
(And behold, it was very good)
He'd mix one color, one just right
(Hallelujah)
(These are the generations)
Black or white
(Hallelujah)
(Of the heavens and of the earth)
One just right
(Hallelujah)
[Verse 2]
Oh, Lord, please hear my plea
(Hear my plea, hear my plea)
Oh, give me eyes to see
(Oh Lord, please hear my plea)
That our creation was meant to be
An act of God to set man free
(Set man free, set man free, set man free)
Set man free
(Set man free)
Set man free
(Set man free)

[Verse 3]
You raised us from the dust
And breathed a life with trust
And gave to man the great choice to be
Alone on earth or one with Thee
(Hallelujah, hallelujah)
One with Thee
(One with Thee)
One with Thee
(One with Thee)

[Verse 4]
(Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God)
When will that great day come
(And everyone that loveth is born of God)
When everyone is one?
(There is no fear in love because fear has torment)
And there will be no more misery
(Perfect love casteth out fear)
When God tells man He's really free
(He that loveth God loveth his brother also)
Really free
(He that loveth God)
Really free
(Loveth his brother also)
Really free
(Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah)
