Faith That Lets Us Sing ‎#64)

64). Now Thank We God, for Honest Labor

Refrain
Now thank we, God, for honest labor,
and this chance to be a neighbor.

Bless the work we do today
each in his or her own way:
pounding nails or painting walls,
cleaning windows, sweeping halls,
mowing lawns or splitting wood,
washing cars so they look good,
serving up a tasty treat
when it’s time to rest and eat. [Refrain]
