    Cowman’s Prayer

    By anonymous | Cowboy Poetry | 0 comment | 6 February, 2017 | 0

    Now, O Lord, please lend me thine ear,
    The prayer of a cattleman to hear,
    No doubt the prayers may seem strange,
    But I want you to bless our cattle range.

    Bless the round-ups year by year,
    And don’t forget the growing steer;
    Water the lands with brooks and rills
    For my cattle that roam on a thousand hills.

    Prairie fires, won’t you please stop?
    Let thunder roll and water drop.
    It frightens me to see the smoke;
    Unless it’s stopped, I’ll go dead broke.

    As you, O Lord, my herd behold,
    It represents a sack of gold;
    I think at least five cents a pound
    Will be the price of beef the year around.

    One thing more and then I’m through,—
    Instead of one calf, give my cows two.
    I may pray different from other men
    But I’ve had my say, and now, Amen.
