Lyrics
Thank You Lord For The Sun
rmartin & lfoster
You could tell that his back was sore
As he'd come walkin' through the door
He'd kiss Mama and sat down for supper at his usual place
Then we'd bow our heads for grace
Pre-chorus: When Sunday morning rolled around
Daddy took us to the church in town
I'd sit beside him and I'd watch him pray
I loved to listen to the things he'd say
Chorus: Thank you Lord for the sun
For giving light to the seeds I sew
It's the only life I know
Thanks again for the rain
For giving hope to the work I do
And it's all because of You
So when my days are done
Thank you Lord for the sun
Time would pass and Daddy?s callin? came
I would have to carry on his name
I had some mighty big shoes to fill on that family tree
I knew he was watchin? me
Now I?m up before the crack of dawn
Before you know it I?m out and gone
Out working the land but I think about him now and then
I can still remember when
Pre-chorus and chorus
Ray Martin
