My Song

It’s many a day that the road gets weary

And it’s many a day that the way is long

And often I say I won’t do it no more

But I’d miss the travelin and I’d miss the songs

I was born to sing but not to wind and space

But to people’s hearts and peoples tears

Tis a gift from God that I pray I’d use it

To sing to their hearts and sing to their ears and

I would sing it loud, I would sing it long

Straight from the heart I would sing it true

Then I’d come back down from that singin mountain

And your life would be better cause I sang it for you

For A song can soar like a lofty eagle

And lift a heart that has fallen low

A song can shine like light in the darkness

And make the downcast look up and glow

I wish I owned a great high mountain

With people below every way I turned

I wish they’d look up and every ear could hear me

And I’d sing my song to the hearts that yearned and

I would sing it loud, I would sing it long

Straight from the heart I would sing it true

Then I’d come back down from that singin mountain

And your life would be better cause I sang it for you
