Farmer's prayer This life brings out the blood, sweat and tears Working on the land is not always fair But God gave him the strength to make this living So He offers up what He calls a farmer's prayer He said Lord please bless the soil that we stand on Bless all the crops we planted in Your name Hold them safely in Your hand until the harvest And help us when we do it all again He'd take a moment to bow His head right there And that He's how He'd say the farmer's prayer Through the ages this work is a changing You've gotta have faith and know God's always there We're doing His important work to feed the hungry So don't forget to say the farmer's prayer He said Lord please bless the soil that we stand on Bless all the crops we planted in Your name Hold them safely in Your hand until the harvest And help us when we do it all again He'd take a moment to bow His head right there And that He's how He'd say the farmer's prayer He's aging now but He still loves the spring time When He sows the seeds and smells rain on the air He's grateful for His life and all the seasons And He knows that God will hear His farmer's prayer He said Lord please bless the soil that we stand on Bless all the crops we planted in Your name Hold them safely in Your hand until the harvest And help us when we do it all again He'd take a moment to bow His head right there And that He's how He'd say the farmer's prayer That is how He'd say the farmer's prayer
