Intro :
S eems the wisdom of man hasn't got m uch wiser
T han the very beginning of o ur time
A gree or war has been our way of compromising
Let l ive and love has b ecome our b iggest l ie
S eems to me that fools are even more f oolish
T hinking of themselves and nobody e lse
B ut then if asked for poor w ill riches be replenished
They say b oot straps must be p ulled up b y themselves
F eeding off the love of the land
L eaving much to be d esired
L iving off the love of the Lord
W hile the price for life is h igher
I sn't love to be ad mired
H as the good in man exp ired
S tealing all the l ove and the beauty f rom the lan d
I awake each morning to the birds a-s inging
S inging out to God to come and save h is own
B ut when throughout the world the cry of love is r inging
I s then when He'll s top to h ear our s ong
D id you know that when you feel the earth a-s haken
I t's only mother nature with a crying h eart
Y ou see we have taken from her for so many a ges
Will there b e a time when tak ing stops and g iving start s
' Cause we're feeding off the love of the land
L eaving much to be d esired
L iving off the love of the Lord
W hile the price for life is h igher
I sn't love to be ad mired
H as the good in man exp ired
S tealing all the l ove and the beauty f rom the lan d
Y es we are feeding off the love of the land
N ever hearing what He's s aying
L iving off the love of the Lord
N ever feeling what you're p raying
N ever praising Him for be auty
O nly praying God please g ive me
S tealing all the l ove and the beauty f rom the lan d
S tealing all the l ove and the beauty f rom His lan d
