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 |
