6) Take My Life & Let Me Live
I’m just a farmer I work in the field alone
Working for a living, for my family and me
It’s been a while since I’ve grown
I’m as old as the mountains, my life’s been bigger than the sea.
I’ve met a lot of people, some of them I’ve hurt
I’ve walked through gardens and survived through forest and dirt.
In my troubles, single footprints left traces behind,
I look back and see that they were yours and not mine
So I thank you God, my very best friend
For being there for me while I tried to understand
That you are the one, the one in who I must believe
Take my life Lord, and let me live.
I know your way, your teachings that have shown me
Your love and your way of life that have shown me
That I should not kill and eat another living being
I’m learnt life, from the stories that you’ve been in
Thank you too for the just the single word that brings peace to me
OM shanti OM, pour your love and peace on me
Help me in my struggle, give me the peace to believe,
Take my life and let me live.
