lyrics

VERSE 1:
Server, you remind us of our Savior’s bowl and towel.
Teacher, you are raising up a child to be kind.
Lawyer, give us hope that justice one day will surround us:

REFRAIN:
May God’s kingdom come
On earth His will be done,
Lord, be close to us
Lord, have mercy on us.
Lord, please put Your hand on us day by day.

VERSE 2:
Farmer, you are working for a table full of bounty.
Painter, with each color you are teaching us to see.
Nurse, yours are the healing hands that touch the poor and broken:
Refrain

VERSE 3:
Carpenter, you frame a house for those who need protection.
Laborer, you lift a heavy burden for the weak.
Leaders, build a city that all children may rejoice in:
Refrain
