Brother Ben

Dear Brother Ben
You've done it again
You've taken your hand
And made it grow
I pray you will show
This world how to know
To plant the seed, plant them trees
And love this placed called home

Dear Brother Ben
Won't you say it again
The world needs your Ideas
You've sat and prayed
You've worked all night and day
To let everyone know

When you were a little bitty boy
Happening to life
You mastered that energy
And gave this world a light
You made your business through
The work of your two hand
Taken all your money
And put trees on every land
Through blood sweat and tears
I've seen it happen here
I watched this boy turn into a man

I said Dear Brother Ben
You've done it again
The Good Lord on your side
Bringin' them trees
And helpin' us to see
What this world still needs
So I'll take my seed
And I'll plant it into be
A life lived fruitfully
Mmm ...
The world needs your ideas
