Feeding Off The Love Of The Land |
| Seems the wisdom of man hasn’t got much wiser |
| Than the very beginning of our time |
| Agree or war has been our way of compromising |
| Let live and love has become our biggest lie |
| Seems to me that fools are even more foolish |
| Thinking of themselves and nobody else |
| But then if asked for poor will riches be replenished |
| They say boot straps must be pulled up by themselves |
| Feeding off the love of the land |
| Leaving much to be desired |
| Living off the love of the Lord |
| While the price for life is higher |
| Isn’t love to be admired |
| Has the good in man expired |
| Stealing all the love and the beauty from the land |
| I awake each morning to the birds a-singing |
| Singing out to God to come and save his own |
| But when throughout the world the cry of love is ringing |
| Is then when He’ll stop to hear our song |
| Did you know that when you feel the earth a-shaken |
| It’s only mother nature with a crying heart |
| You see we have taken from her for so many ages |
| Will there be a time when taking stops and giving starts |
| 'Cause we’re feeding off the love of the land |
| Leaving much to be desired |
| Living off the love of the Lord |
| While the price for life is higher |
| Isn’t love to be admired |
| Has the good in man expired |
| Stealing all the love and the beauty from the land |
| Yes we are feeding off the love of the land |
| Never hearing what He’s saying |
| Living off the love of the Lord |
| Never feeling what you’re praying |
| Never praising Him for beauty |
| Only praying God please give me Stealing all the love and the beauty from the land |
| Stealing all the love and the beauty from His land |
