To live out the greater part of my days
To live out the greater part of my days
Indeed I see pestilence and plague
They are looking for what they can take
Come in all size appear in all shape
Lord give us the vision to differentiate
Yeah they lay wait, we shall escape
God who protect is greater than great
In all that we do He holds our fate
To live out the greater part of my days
To live out the greater part of my days
Teach the youths them right in the way they should grow
Joy is a stream constantly flow
And I don't want to be unhappy
Let me live till I'm gray
Keep out of tale bearers and back-biters way
Never let this bit of education decay no way
To live out the greater part of my days
To live out the greater part of my days
To live out the greater part of my days
To live out the greater part of our days
Teach the youths them right in the way they should grow
Joy is a stream constantly flow
And I don't want to be unhappy
Let me live till I'm gray
Keep out of tale bearers and back-biters way
Never let this bit of education decay no way
To live out the greater part of my days
