The God in the Sky (Psalm 18)
A light romp through David's career.
Prologue:
I was in trouble deep, told myself, "Hey, Dave
No gettin outta this, no hope for you except just one way
Verse 1:
So I raised my voice to my covenant God
He heard my call and I'm gonna tell you just what went down”
The earth reeled and rocked and the mountains shook
On the wings of the wind He rescued me right where I stood
Thought I was a goner, thought I was fried
Well I owe my life to the God in the sky
Verse 2:
Armies all around, more than I could tell
They's comin' after me Never lost my swagger as I cried for help
The sky filled with smoke, angry fire and hail
All my enemies, they were all wiped out; God did not fail
I took 'em all down and I climbed up high
But I owe it all to the God in the sky
Bridge:
That’s me making a spectacle I'm just a dancin' fool
No chance of losin' respect because I'm the king and I'm too cool
Verse 3:
Made me quick as a deer, gave me hands so strong
Then God made me king Pretty good deal and it didn't take long
Some say I'm too proud, the victory I took
I always point to the sky Kinda nice to be the one to write the history book
Now I'm the king none dare defy
And I owe my crown to the God in the sky
Bridge:
That’s me making a spectacle I'm just a dancin' fool
No chance of losin' respect because I'm the king and I'm too cool
Verse 4:
So that's how it went I won't soon forget
How my covenant God came to rescue me from a major threat
My God lives, My Rock and I’m sittin' downtown
Just shows our God is on anyone's side who's beaten down
Call me a hero, maybe I'm that guy
But I owe it all to the God in the sky
