Remember the Lord
[Verse 1]
If you stub your toe when you get out of bed
And you slip in the shower and you knock your head
If you miss your brekky and your bike tyre's flat
If your dog eats your lunch and you step on the cat
(Mreoww!)
[Chorus]
Remember the Lord, oh-oh
Remember that He is in control
Remember the Lord, oh-oh
He's watching His children
He cares, oh-oh
Remember the Lord, oh-oh, oh-oh
[Verse 2]
If you get to school about a half hour late
And the principal meets you at the gate
If you can't remember one plus two
And you're busted for something you didn't do!
[Chorus]
Remember the Lord, oh-oh
Remember that He is in control
Remember the Lord, oh-oh
He's watching His children
He cares, oh-oh
Remember the Lord, oh-oh, oh-oh
[Verse 3]
If your Dad is crusty and your mum's in a flap
And you spill the custard in your sister's lap
If you're sent to bed and you don't know why
And you can't get to sleep and you just want to cry
[Chorus]
Remember the Lord, oh-oh
Remember that He is in control
Remember the Lord, oh-oh
He's watching His children
He cares, oh-oh
Remember the Lord, oh-oh, oh-oh
[Instrumental: Mouth trumpeting]
[Verse 4]
Well if you're hitting the skids, and you're up the creek
If you're down and out, and things look bleak
If you're in the pits, and you're out for a duck
If you're long in the tooth and short of a buck
[Chorus]
Remember the Lord, oh-oh
Remember that He is in control
Remember the Lord, oh-oh
He's watching His children
He cares, oh-oh
Remember the Lord, oh-oh, oh-oh
