Iris DeMent

    Continues after the ad

    It'll burn you at the start, as if to breezes you were bare
    Then drop deep into your heart like a single salty tear
    And the heart full of spite will come to know regret
    And their sorrow, although light, it will not forget

    Others will reap, I'll only sow
    When the triumphant scythers lay the grain low
    Bless them, o lord
    Bless them, o lord

    Continues after the ad

    And so that I may lift my eyes in thanks to you above
    Let me give the world a gift more incorruptible than love
    Let me give the world a gift more incorruptible than love

    Others will reap, I'll only sow
    When the triumphant scythers lay the grain low
    Bless them, o lord
    Bless them, o lord
    Bless them, o lord
    Bless them, o lord
