A Logger's Prayer
"Be with me Lord throughout this day,
may your breeze be gentle today, to keep the trees from falling my way.
Lord, hold up the logs while I boom them down,
it sure is good knowing you're around.
Lord, may your mountains not be so steep
as I drive down with a big load behind my back and only a prayer beneath my feet.
Lord, you know you're the best worker that I have found
and I know you work overtime keeping me safe and sound."
--Helen Thomas Adkins, 1999
If you happen to be Catholic, you could pray to Saint John Gaulbert or Saint Hubert of Liege. They are the patron saints of forest workers. Saint Gummurus is the patron saint of woodcutters.

I'm a lumberjack and I'm ok. I sleep all night and I work all day.
I cut down trees, I skip and jump, I like to press wild flowers.
I put on women's clothing and hang around in bars.
c/o Monty Python
God Bless the Lumberjacks.
Amen
