I was a God-fearing boy
And a pretty good sinner
Skimmed the Good Book
Saw the light in the hymnal
Singing songs 'bout Jesus
And ol' man Moses
Finding the message
In acapella chorus
Now, Papa and me
Tended fences and fields
On that dusty old ranch
Grandpa had for a hundred years
And I'd sing those hymns
While driving a mule
I'd sing 'em in bed, oh yeah
And I'd sing 'em in school
Don't need no shrine or mosque
A chapel or a synagogue
I got so much love in my heart
Sittin' on this wayside log
From clear water creeks
To hills of sweet birch
This ranch, my cathedral
This ranch is my church
Now, Papa and me
Worked that ranch every day
Moving too much dirt
With too little to say
We'd wipe off the dust
While the table was set
Papa leading the prayer
Mama breaking the bread
Now, I'm a God-fearing man
Not sinning so much
Papa's long gone
Mama's still got her touch
I once was lost
But now I'm found
This ranch is my church
Homestead sacred ground
C'mon
Don't need no shrine or mosque
A chapel or a synagogue
I got so much love in my heart
Sittin' on this wayside log
From clear water creeks
To hills of sweet birch
This ranch, my cathedral
This ranch is my church
This land is my shepherd
Hallowed be thy plain
The rains they come
Then the Tennessee sun
And they do it all over again
This ranch is heaven
Can I get an Amen
With stars and strips
My faith ignites this Dixie Bethlehem
Don't need no shrine or mosque
A chapel or a synagogue
I got so much love in my heart
Sittin' on this wayside log
From clear water creeks
To hills of sweet birch
This ranch, my cathedral
Oh, this ranch is my church
Don't need no shrine or mosque
A chapel or a synagogue
I got so much love in my heart
Sittin' on this wayside log
From clear water creeks
To hills of sweet birch
This ranch, my cathedral
I said, this ranch is my church
This ranch, this cathedral
Can you guess her name
Oh, tell me, baby, this old ranch
Can you guess her name
This ranch you see is heaven to me
Let the angels explain
C'mon
Yea, oh, this ranch is my church
Oh, this ranch, oh, this ranch
Is my church
Oh yea, this ranch is my church
Amen
