OUR WORKER

Our labourer who art beneath the dark sky
Thine is the toil, the peril and despair
You who can tame the forces of the river
You who can shape tomorrow with your hands
Our labourer who art among your brothers
Thine is the day, the power and the soil
Glory be sown, and harrowed be the acres
Reach out your hand to see a new day grow

Lead us not to misery, deliver us from domination
Kingdom of fairness and justice for all, kingdom come
Blow like the wind through the blossoming quebradas
Scour like the fire from the mouth of my gun

Finally, your will be done in factories and farmyards
Give us this day the strength and the courage to fight
And blow like the wind through the blossoming quebradas
Scour like the fire from the mouth of my gun

Our labourer of quarries, quays and chimneys
Reach out your hand and see a new day grow
We’ll go together, this is the blood that binds us
for ever and ever till death do us apart

Amen!
Stand up and see the power of the mountain
Source of the sun, of water and the wild wind
You who can harness the rush of mighty rivers
You who can gather the harvest of your soul.

Stand up and see the hands with which you labor
Reach out to hold your brother's hand in your hand
Growing together by ties of earth united
Knowing together the future can be now.

Yea, deliver us, deliver us from those who command us
Teach us the strength to take our share of the sun
Blow like the high wind thru wild mountain flowers
Cleansing like flame the barrel of my gun.

Give us this day a world where no man is master
Our kingdom come on earth, let our will be done
Blow like the high wind thru wild mountain flowers
Cleansing like flame the barrel of my gun.

Stand up and see the power of the mountain
Reach out to hold your sister's hand in your hand
Growing together by ties of earth united
Now and in the hour of death, amen!
