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]
