Once I chased the world always in a rush
Tried to outwork the devil in the dust and brush
But the noise got too loud couldn't hear my own heart
So I learned to shut the hell up and let God do His part
Now I'm a meditating cowboy in the still of the night
Listening to the silence to let the stars shine bright
Ain't no preacher needed no church in sight
Just me and the Lord in the cool moonlight
City folk think I'm simple that I'm just wastin' time
But I'm richer than a king with a peace that's all mine
In the quiet of the morning when the dew's on the grass
I find my Savior's wisdom whispers in each moment I pass
Now I'm a meditating cowboy in the still of the night
Listening to the silence to let the stars shine bright
Ain't no preacher needed no church in sight
Just me and the Lord in the cool moonlight
I ain't against no sermons or no gospel choir
But I got a heart on fire and a soul lifted higher
When the world spins too fast I slow it all down
I'm a meditating cowboy I'm on sacred ground
I'm a meditating cowboy in the still of the night
Listening to the silence to let the stars shine bright
Ain't no preacher needed no church in sight
Just me and the Lord in the cool moonlight
If you're lost in the noise and your soul's feeling rough
Try shuttin' the hell up and just listen to God's love
You might find what you're seeking in the quiet and the dark
Like a meditating cowboy finding light in his heart
