I didn't promise you skies painted blue
Not all colored flowers all your days through
I didn't promise you
Sun with no rain
Joys without sorrows
Peace without pain
All that I promise is strength for this day
Rest for my worker
And light on your way
I give you truth when you need it
My help from above
Undying friendship
My unfailing love
I never did promise you crowns without trials
Food with no hard sweat
Your tears without smiles
Hot sunny days without cold wintry snows
No vict'ry without fightin'
No laughs without woes
All that I promise is strength for this day
Rest for my
Worker
My light on your way
I give you truth when you need it
My help from above
Undying friendship
My unfailing love
I sure didn't say I'd give you heaven on earth
A life with no labor no struggles no deaths
No earthquakes no dryspells
No fire flames no droughts
No slaving no hungers
No blizzards no blights
All that I promise is strength for this day
Rest for my worker
My light on your way
I give you truth when you need it
My help from above
Undying friendship
My unfailing love
I promise you power
This minute this hour
The power you need when you fall down to bleed
I give you my peace
And my strength to pull home
My love for all races all creeds and all kinds
My flavors my saviors my creeds of all kinds
My love for my saviors
All colors all kinds
My love for my races all creeders all kinds
My saviors my flavors my dancers all kinds
My dancers my prancers my singers all kinds
My flavors my saviors my dancers all kinds
