Diverting-Your Path

God is watching us like a bird on a holly branch God is watching us from his fatherland, God is watching us from a nest he never leaves Watching us like a gundog that always retrieves. God is watching us in a river flowing by God is watching us like a beady-eyed dragonfly, God is watching us from a night sky, black as ink It's a kind of a methodical-courtship dance I think God is listening to every lilt and rise, beat in your heart God is listening to the song the source he's made impart God is listening to every note and not by rote He hears and remembers every feeling, and word we denote. God is listening to all our prayers God is listening to even the fiend that swears God is listening to us on a fiery spiralling stairwell Diverting-your path constantly from going to hell. God is listening to every lilt and rise God is listening to all our prayers God is watching us like a bird God is watching us in a river A beady-eyed dragonfly Watching us from a night sky, black as ink It's a kind of a methodical-courtship dance I really do think.
