[Verse 1] Got a sermon with my coffee And a lecture with my straw Seems the plastic lid this morning Had offended natural law I said, "I brought my own cup, friend— Can I just enjoy my brew?" He said, "Only if it's certified." I said, "The coffee, or are you?" [Verse 2] I don't dump oil in the driveway I don't leave my trash to blow I'll fix the leak and plant the seed Give that shade tree room to grow I can care about tomorrow Without panic in my chest The Lord who made this patch of ground Can help me do the rest [Chorus] Is it green or is it God That you're leaning on tonight? Are you caring for creation Or just scared to turn on lights? I can plant a tree and thank Him Keep the creek behind me clean But I bow before the Maker, Not the latest shade of green [Verse 3] There's a fella on a private jet Says my old truck's got to go He's got three homes and a heated pool But I'm the problem, though If we're all supposed to sacrifice, There's something left unsaid: Brother, let that sermon land— And park the jet instead [Chorus] Is it green or is it God That you're leaning on tonight? Are you caring for creation Or just scared to turn on lights? I can plant a tree and thank Him Keep the creek behind me clean But I bow before the Maker, Not the latest shade of green [Verse 4] I stepped outside the argument And watched the evening fall The crickets didn't need a grant To sing their altar call I thanked the Lord for growing things For rain and roots and sod This world is worth my tending But my worship goes to God [Bridge] Give me wisdom for the tending Give me hands that do their part Let me care for what You've given While Your peace guards my heart [Final Chorus] Is it green or is it God That you're leaning on tonight? Are you caring for creation Or just scared to turn on lights? I can plant a tree and thank Him Keep the creek behind me clean But I bow before the Maker, Not the latest shade of green [Outro] I'll take good care of the garden Give the trees a friendly nod You can keep the guilt subscription— I'm putting my trust in God
