Dear God! (We’re Blaming You for Our Own Mess) a response to XTC’s “Dear God”
Dear God, hope to know You better and I pray we help make it better down here I know we can’t completely obliterate each tear But tell the people that they’re made in Your image Serve the hurting, give relief ‘Cause we forget we’re ambassadors here They can’t believe in You
Dear God, I’m sorry I fail You yet I know that You’ll hear me, make my way clear To work with You in reducing our infinite tears Yet all us people that You made in Your image We keep fighting in our streets ‘Cause we won’t make our opinions match You We won’t believe in You
Though we caused disease, You make all new! Though You made mankind, we would unmake You! We’re the Devil’s tool!
Dear God, don’t seem that we’ve noticed but You came in our place and You gave us this book And us crazy humans miss it, we don’t care to look And all the people that You made in Your image Believe that other junk is more true Well I know it ain’t, and so do You Dear God I must believe You I must believe
I must believe in Heaven, in Hell The saints, the sinners, the devil as well The pearly gates, the thorny crown We blame You for letting humans down The wars we wage, the babies we drown Those we could free and never unbound And it’s the same the whole world ‘round The hurt we cause, evil compounds That Father, Son and Holy Ghost Made to appear an unholy hoax Yes, You’re ‘up there’! I must believe That You know my tears ere I grieve If there’s one Truth I MUST believe in
It’s You Dear God
It is You!
