Lyrics God Watch Over You - Prefab Sprout

I've no time for religion,
Maybe doubt's a modern disease?
Then I look at you, and here's what I do,
I wear holes in both my knees.

I pray that God protects you,
And if he is busy elsewhere
May his legions speed
In your hour of need
And surround you till he's there.

I pray that god protects you...

God watch over you
Every minute, every moment
God watch over you
Every minute, every moment
God watch over you (and if you fall)

May he stretch out his arm and catch you,
Keep you from harm, or sweep you
Into his palm... but...

God watch over you
God watch over you

I've told your guardian angel
Not to let you out of his sight
Or attempt to fly - if he sees you cry
He's to stand his ground and fight,
I've warned your guardian angel...

God watch over you
Every minute, every moment
God watch over you
Every minute, every moment
God watch over you (and if you fall)

May he stretch out his arm and catch you,
Keep you from harm, or sweep you
Into his palm... but...

God watch over you
God watch over you (and if you fall)
God watch over you

God watch over you
God watch over you
