Working For The Lord |
| The Bible is our weapon the amunition’s inside I’m told |
| Let’s go fight on Jesus side he hasn’t lost one soul |
| Let’s join his band of soldiers cause they don’t live by sword |
| We’ll be fightin' for our countrymen but we’ll be workin' for the Lord |
| Sixteen years ago today I gave birth to a little boy |
| And of all the worries I’ve had for him ev’ry minute has been a joy |
| And when they laid him in my arms on that twenty-seventh day of May |
| I looked down at his tiny little face and you should have heard me pray |
| Oh dear God you’ve blessed me with more than I deserve |
| And someday God when he grows up it’s you I pray he’ll serve |
| Now all his friends have gathered around to help him celebrate |
| He just blew out the candles and has begin to cut the cake |
| They’re laughin' and they’re talkin' of what they’re gonna do and be some day |
| And when they get a little older they’re gonna go fight for their country |
| But I couldn’t help but overhear what my son had to say |
| And there’s not one doubt in my mind that my prayer paid off today |
| We’ll be fightin' for our countrymen but we’ll be workin' for the Lord |
