Johnny Appleseed

Oh the Lord is good to me
And so I thank the Lord
For giving me the things I need
The sun and the rain and the apple seed
Oh the Lord is good to me

For every seed I sow
An apple tree will grow
And there will be apples there
Enough for the whole wide world to share
The Lord is good to me
Johnny Appleseed.... Amen!

Do we ever stop and pray
For the food we've had today,
Counting all our blessings one by one.

Living out our Promise dear
Let us sing praises to our God.

Praise be to God
Extending friendships far and near
They will live forever
Though we're not together.
Praise be to God
For our blessings here.
