Stewards

[Instrumental intro]

[Chorus]
Be a steward of the earth
Do what you can for what it's worth
Put your signature on the ground
Even if you're not the first

[Verse 1]
It was a long time ago
When my grandfather used to say
That when nature calls
You better answer right away

But it wasn't a joke to him
Because he knew what it took to create
All the trees and flowers that turn towards the sky
For a caretaker they wait

[Chorus]
Be a steward of the earth
Do what you can for what it's worth
Put your signature on the ground
Even if you're not the first

Be a steward of the skies
Give your heart a reason to fly
I you let the sunshine grow
There's no limit to how high

[Verse 2]
I've heard almost everybody say
That they just want to be free
But what purpose do you serve
With no responsibility

For the only way anybody
Will be able to recall your name
Will be to look upon the ground
And with confidence say

[Chorus]
Be a steward of the earth
Do what you can for what it's worth
Put your signature on the ground
Even if you're not the first

Be a steward of the skies
Give your heart a reason to fly
If you let the sunshine grow
There's no limit to how high

Be a steward of the sea
Swim in an ocean of the free
When that wave comes along
You'll be on top for all to see

[Verse 3]
Because it means a whole lot to me
Even if nobody seems to know
I'll be around to see you plant those seeds
And they'll be around to see it grow

[Chorus]
So, be a steward of the earth
Do what you can for what it's worth
Put your signature on the ground
Even if you're not the first

Be a steward of the skies
Give your heart a reason to fly
If you let the sunshine grow
There's no limit to how high

Be a steward of the sea
Swim in an ocean of the free
When that wave comes along
You'll be on top for all eternity
