"I Saw God Today" is a song written by Rodney Clawson, Monty Criswell and Wade Kirby, and recorded by American country music artist George Strait. It was released in February 2008 as the lead single from his album ''Troubadour''. The song debuted at number 19 on the ''Billboard'' Hot Country Songs chart, giving Strait the highest chart debut of his career, as well as his 43rd ''Billboard'' Number One. The song is part of the tracklist for ''Now That's What I Call Country''. "I Saw God Today" won Single of the Year at the 2008 CMA Awards. ==Content== The song is a mid-tempo ballad in which the lead character is walking down the sidewalk after his wife has just had a baby, meanwhile noticing such things as a flower growing out of a crack in the sidewalk, a couple who are expecting a baby and the colors of a sunset. Finally, the song ends with the central character in the nursery of a hospital, looking at his own newborn baby girl. He cites each thing that he sees along the way — the flower, the couple, the sunset and his newborn daughter — as examples of how he saw God that day. According to Clawson, the idea for the song came from Criswell, who said that after unsuccessful hunting trips, he would often say that he "caught a glimpse of God today" despite not seeing any animals. 〔http://www.americansongwriter.com/2009/05/row-writers-rodney-clawson/〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「I Saw God Today」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
