God Owns the Cattle
God owns the cattle on a thousand hills,
The wealth in every mine;
The wealth in every mine;
He owns the rivers and the rocks and rills,
The sun and stars that shine.
The sun and stars that shine.
Wonderful riches, more than tongue can tell -
He is my Father so they’re mine as well;
God owns the cattle on a thousand hills -
I know that He will care for me.
by John W. Peterson (1921-2006), published 1948.
