It was a long time ago I was a girl 'bout 12 years old[00:00:37]
On my back staring up into the dark summer sky[00:00:45]
When I said "God tomorrow I can't see[00:00:53]
But I'll stick close to you if you'll stick close to me "[00:00:56]
And that night I prayed "Keep me God Keep me God "[00:01:02]
Now I don't know just where God lives[00:01:08]
Ain't all that sure just exactly who God is[00:01:13]
I don't know if there's a church[00:01:16]
That deserves to take God's name[00:01:20]
I just know that when I look around here I see[00:01:24]
The hand of someone or something[00:01:29]
That is bigger than me[00:01:32]
And I call that God[00:01:34]
And then I pray "Just keep me God"[00:01:35]
I'm in a plane up in the sky[00:02:11]
A storm surrounds us as we fly[00:02:15]
And below the big black ocean is all that I can see[00:02:19]
When all at once I realize: Don't really matter if I live or even if I die[00:02:28]
Just so long as you keep me God[00:02:35]
Now when my days draw to an end[00:02:42]
And I've said goodbye to my family and friends[00:02:46]
When the tide that turns my life is standing still[00:02:50]
As I turn my final bend I betcha I'm gonna be asking even then[00:02:56]
Keep me God keep me God keep me God[00:03:06]
Keep me God keep me God keep me God[00:03:14]
