The Cow Hand
You would never know it
at first glance
but
You would
if
You gave yourself a chance
A rugged man
tall
He does stand
and
not just another
cow hand
His heart is true
to the code of the west
each
and
everyday
he does his best
He..s kind
and
gentle
to his steed
he sees to it..s
every need
and
for the souls of men
His heart bleeds
He takes in each breath
with thanksgiving
and
knows
this is what it means
to really be living
as
the winds of change
begin to blow
He still has something
He wants
each of us to know
Enjoy each moment
you can..t get them back
don..t
let those
the LORD
has set before us
slip thru the cracks
Love them
the best you can
it..s all you can do
this is what
this man
has shown to me
and
I
want to show you
