Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Pre-Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Pre-Chorus] Would not our world turn cold If the sun refused to shine? [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 [Bridge] 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 [Pre-Chorus] Would not our world turn cold If the sun refused to shine? [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 [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 [Outro] Oh Lord, deliver us from the elements Oh Lord, deliver us from the elements Oh Lord, deliver us from the elements
