Teen For God - Dar Williams[00:00:00]
The sun burns down[00:00:06]
Leaving God's bright stamp[00:00:07]
On Peach Branch Horse[00:00:09]
And Bible Camp[00:00:10]
Where we're splashing in the water[00:00:12]
Joined in song[00:00:13]
Swimming with the Spirit[00:00:14]
The whole day long[00:00:16]
I'm a teen for God[00:00:18]
God is watching teen for God[00:00:21]
God is watching teen for God[00:00:26]
The girls have looks[00:00:32]
And the girls have rules[00:00:34]
They came here from[00:00:35]
Their Bible schools[00:00:36]
They can make you pay attention[00:00:38]
To the way you dress and eat[00:00:39]
Make you trip over[00:00:41]
Your own two feet and they[00:00:42]
Kneel down on their towels at night[00:00:44]
Their nightgowns glow[00:00:46]
With a Holy light[00:00:47]
And we pray for the sinners[00:00:49]
And their drunken car wrecks[00:00:50]
And vow that I'll never get high[00:00:52]
And have sex[00:00:53]
I'm a teen for God[00:00:55]
God is watching teen for God[00:00:58]
God is watching teen for God[00:01:04]
And God made every leaf[00:01:09]
On every tree[00:01:11]
Each grain of sand[00:01:15]
God has a plan[00:01:16]
For what we're meant to be[00:01:18]
I gotta wait for God[00:01:23]
Dear Lord[00:01:27]
I plan each day[00:01:27]
The things I will not do or say[00:01:29]
But I'm driven by a passion[00:01:31]
Is it only there to tame[00:01:33]
It fills my heart[00:01:35]
And it calls my name and[00:01:35]
This world that you made for us[00:01:37]
I know I know is dangerous[00:01:40]
So I ride a lot of horses[00:01:42]
And I never even swear[00:01:44]
Sorta like praying I'm just not there[00:01:45]
Oh God[00:01:49]
God is watching oh God[00:01:52]
God is watching[00:01:57]
But God made love[00:02:03]
God made the rivers run[00:02:04]
And cowboy boots[00:02:09]
And bathing suits[00:02:10]
And the boy's skin[00:02:11]
Dries[00:02:13]
In the sun[00:02:14]
You gotta help me God[00:02:16]
Help me know[00:02:20]
Four years from now[00:02:21]
I won't believe in you anyhow[00:02:22]
And I'll mope around the campus[00:02:25]
And I'll feel betrayed[00:02:27]
All those guilty summers I stayed[00:02:28]
But then I'll laugh[00:02:31]
That I fell for the lure[00:02:32]
Of the pain of desire[00:02:34]
To feel so pure[00:02:35]
And I'll bear all the burdens[00:02:36]
Of my little daily crimes[00:02:38]
Wish I had a God for such[00:02:39]
Cynical times[00:02:41]
Far from today[00:02:44]
But for now I'm a sacred vessel[00:02:47]
Rip me open[00:02:50]
I spread your word[00:02:51]
Like a milkweed pod[00:02:52]
I'm a radio station[00:02:54]
Your Holy transmission[00:02:55]
Even more[00:02:56]
Like a lightning rod[00:02:58]
I'm a lightning rod[00:02:59]
A teen for God teen for God[00:03:01]
God is watching teen for God[00:03:06]
God is watching[00:03:12]
I am a teen for God[00:03:17]
