I'm writing a letter to the Lord
A prayer for all of us tonight
I ask in my letter that things may go better
And my heart said every word I write
This letter I'm writing to the Lord
I beg Him to sound the mighty call
And tell all the nation like one congregation
That they've got to listen to His word
I make a plea for generations yet unborn
That they may live to see and tend His fields of corn
So I'm writing a letter to the Lord
And there'll come an answer from above
His help He'll be given to this dear land we live in
If we trust in Him with faith and love
So I'm writing a letter to the Lord
And there'll come an answer from above
His help He'll be given to this dear land we live in
If we trust in Him with faith and love
