Peasants Presence

I cannot say I'd like to play a peasant,
for I would be, it seems to me, so bored,
but I'd partake in what might make it pleasant,
that peasants love the presence of the Lord.
You'll hear a grumble from some humble peasants,
there's scarcely none who sing with one accord,
though they don't lack of faithful acquiescence,
those peasants who bring presents to the Lord.
You will not see theology incessant
among the peasants present in a horde,
but do not misinterpret this quiescence,
for peasants love the essence of the Lord.
Such faith will later rate a great reward,
the peasant who is present to the Lord.
