The Farmers Song .

The Farmers Song.
I'm of the band that till the land,
A nd draw from earth her store;
Right happy indeed's the life we lead,
While our days passing o'er;
Many they are, in riches far
Surprising the farmers purse.
While other pursuits may yield more fruit''
Yet often bring forth much worse
We envy not the statesman's !ot
Still clamoring lor his class;
Nor his that fights for glory's rights,
At some rebounded pass.
No risk have we on boisterous sea
Nor fears lest tempest whelm
All we possess, without redress,
While laboring at the helm.
The fruitful field its bounties yields
A rich reward for :oil;
Be ours the trade to ply the spade.
And deeply plough the soil.
We walk abroad DER carpet sod,
And flow'rets kiss our feet,
Whose odors rise to catch the skies
A tribute pure and meet.
To all we give the means to live,
As brother shares with brother;
And thus fulfil the holy will
That bids us "love each other"
Oh! life secure from guile, and pure,
To thee my soul clngs ever
With all it's might, in fond delight.
To change from thee. no, never.
