Deliver Us From The Elements |
We can plant a seed |
And watch it grow |
Food enough to fill a table |
Running water down an overflow |
Eat as much as we are able |
But would the fruit turn ripe |
If the rains had never been? |
Chorus: Oh Lord deliver us from the elements |
We at your mercy and your reverence |
Oh Lord deliver us from the elements |
We’ve no defense we are impotent |
You can travel far to distant lands |
Some so hot no man could bear |
You can conquer peaks with winds of sand |
Where Mother Nature didn’t care |
Would not our world turn cold |
If the sun refused to shine |
Chorus |
And when the world grows old |
And we know more than our brains can hold |
Nature will be law |
Well we’re as helpless now as we’ve ever been before |
Would not our world turn cold |
If the sun refused to shine |
