The Old Man with the Beard
I’m the old man with the beard
Who lives in the sky
I am the universe
And the universe is me
I’m the man who sees everything
I’m the eye in the sky
I can see everything in ten different ways
And I gave the names to seven different days
I can see things big and I see things small
And no matter where you are
I can hear your call
There are some who revere me
And bow their heads
There are some who ignore me
Asleep in their beds
A thousand prayers come every day
But I can’t answer them all,
No way
I’m busy enough making the world go round
And thinking thoughts that are very profound
I make the sun shine
And I make the winds blow
But some don’t believe me
Or didn’t you know?
So I’ll give you one chance
A very last chance
Go outside and breathe in my air
Warm your hands in the rays of my sun
Don’t call me Jehovah or praise me as God
But if you’re suitably impressed
Just tip me a nod
