Feeding Off The Love Of The Land

Seems the wisdom of man hasn't got much wiserThan the very beginning of our timeAgree or war has been our way of compromisingLet live and love has become our biggest lieSeems to me that fools are even more foolishThinking of themselves and nobody elseBut then if asked for poor will riches be replenishedThey say boot straps must be pulled up by themselvesFeeding off the love of the landLeaving much to be desiredLiving off the love of the LordWhile the price for life is higherIsn't love to be admiredHas the good in man expiredStealing all the love and the beauty from the landI awake each morning to the birds a-singingSinging out to God to come and save his ownBut when throughout the world the cry of love is ringingIs then when He'll stop to hear our songDid you know that when you feel the earth a-shakenIt's only mother nature with a crying heartYou see we have taken from her for so many agesWill there be a time when taking stops and giving starts'Cause we're feeding off the love of the landLeaving much to be desiredLiving off the love of the LordWhile the price for life is higherIsn't love to be admiredHas the good in man expiredStealing all the love and the beauty from the landYes we are feeding off the love of the landNever hearing what He's sayingLiving off the love of the LordNever feeling what you're prayingNever praising Him for beautyOnly praying God please give meStealing all the love and the beauty from the landStealing all the love and the beauty from His land
