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 Chorus
