“When you have eaten and are full, you shall bless the Lord your God for all the good land which He has given you.” - Deut 8:10 (AMPC) / “And He will love you, bless you, and multiply you; He will also bless the fruit of your body and the fruit of you land, your grain, your new wine, and your oil, the increase of your cattle and the young of your flock in the land which He swore to your fathers to give to you.” - Deut 7:13 (AMPC)

VERSE

The Lord gives food for a reason

Grown on rainy days and in sunny seasons

The Lord gives food for a reason

To make us strong, when the journey’s long, so

CHORUS

Bless the land where it grows

Bless the hand from which has sown and

Bless the land and the sea

Bless the reaper, the harvest keeper

Make Your purpose be known

In our bodies, our hearts and our home

Lord, make Your purpose be known

In our bodies, our hearts and our home

VERSE

Die Here gee kos vir ‘n rede

Kos wat groei in reën en in sonnige streke

Die Here gee kos vir ‘n rede

Want dit maak ons sterk vir die harde werk, so

CHORUS

Seën die plaas waar dit groei

Seën die boer, keer ‘n son wat skroei en

Seën die land en die see

Beskerm die diere, die visse, die miere

Maak U wil in ons tuis

In ons lyfies, ons harte en huis.

Heer, maak U wil in ons tuis

In ons lyfies, ons harte en huis.
