Faith From A Farmer

He wakes up before the sun And drinks his coffee black as the sky And buttons up his shirt Ballcap with yesterday's dirt ain't even dry His family's owned that farm since his daddy was born But he knows that it only takes one storm

So, he prays for the rain And asks the Lord for just enough to feed his family He knows you reap what you sow And so, he drives the tractor until her supper's waiting Because he knows you gotta work hard but pray even harder Yeah, you can learn a lot about faith from a farmer

Every penny made He spends just to make it back to spring And last year the crops did good But when april comes around don't mean a thing Cause there's always something left for him to do While he tries to be a good husband and father too

So, he prays for the rain And asks the Lord for just enough to feed his family He knows you reap what you sow And so, he drives the tractor until her supper's waiting Because he knows you gotta work hard but pray even harder Yeah, you can learn a lot about faith from a farmer

Only life he'd ever choose 'Cause he feels closest to God Doing what he asked him to do

While he prays for the rain And asks the Lord for just enough to feed his family He knows you reap what you sow And so, he drives the tractor until her supper's waiting Because he knows you gotta work hard but pray even harder He just wants to hand down a good life to his son and daughter You can learn a lot about faith from a farmer
