Live as the sunset may find us, Worthy his gifts to hold. Lunch Grace The Lord's been good to me; And so I thank the Lord, For giving me the things I need, The sun, the rain and Kamaji. The Lord's been good to me. Halleluhiah! O here am I, 'Neath the blue, blue sky. Doing as I please; Singing with my feathered friends, And humming with the bees. And every seed I sow, Will grow into a tree. And someday there'll be apples there, For everyone in the world to share. The Lord's been good to me. Halleluhiah! Dinner Grace For food and health this happy day, Accept our thanks to thee we pray. In serving others, Lord may we, Repay our debt of love to thee.
