I've met the Master on my knees been tested and been tried
I've seen the God of heaven paint the fields and country side
I've been the husband of a wife heard my newborn baby cry
But when I've learned enough to really live I'll be old enough to die old enough to die
I'm just a plain hard working man no stopping place have I found
Although I'm tired I'm still inspired at night when I lie down
I've learned to like it on God's earth sometimes I wonder why
When I've learned enough to really live I'll be old enough to die old enough to die
When I've learned enough to really live I'll be old enough to die old enough to die
I've seen the God of heaven paint the fields and country side
I've been the husband of a wife heard my newborn baby cry
But when I've learned enough to really live I'll be old enough to die old enough to die
I'm just a plain hard working man no stopping place have I found
Although I'm tired I'm still inspired at night when I lie down
I've learned to like it on God's earth sometimes I wonder why
When I've learned enough to really live I'll be old enough to die old enough to die
When I've learned enough to really live I'll be old enough to die old enough to die
