(verse 1) 
      A
Lord, I've never lived where churches grow,  
                               E
I loved creation better as it stood, 
That day you finished it so long ago, 
                                         A
And looked upon your work and called it good, 
(verse 2) 
       A
I know that others find you in the light, 
                                        E
That sifted down through tinted window panes, 
And yet I seem to feel you near tonight 
                                     A
In this dim , quiet starlight on the plains, 
(verse 3) 
     A
I thank you, Lord, that I'm placed so well, 
                                 E
That you've made my freedom so complete, 
That I'm no slave to whistle, clock or bell, 
                                 A
Nor weak eyed prisoner of Wall Street, 
(verse 4) 
         A
Just let me live my life as I've begun, 
                                     E
And give me work that's open to the sky, 
Make me a partner of the wind and sun, 
                                      A
And I won't ask a life that's soft or high, 
(verse 5) 
        A
Let me be easy on the man that's down, 
                                   E
Let me be square and generous with all, 
I'm careless sometimes, Lord, when I'm in town, 
                                   A
But never let 'em say I'm mean or small,
