I'm gonna sing just as long
As it takes for a song
To make sad, heavy spirits free;
I'm gonna keep making music
That carries the secret
That Jesus is Liberty!
I'm gonna turn off the sounds
That would drag people down
To the pit of despondency:
With a sweet happy tune,
He's coming soon
For His children like you and me!
It's a song
that'll carry a message along
Through the densest of foggy nights;
And the tune is the rope
That can throw a man hope,
When He's going down for the third time;
It's a sweet melody
That can cut your heart free
From the chains of a past defeat:
You can suddenly see
Through the sweet harmony,
A path for your wandering feet!
I'm gonna sing just as long
As it takes for a song
To make sad, heavy spirits free;
I'm gonna keep making music
That carries the secret
That Jesus is Liberty!
I'm gonna turn off the sounds
That would drag people down
To the pit of despondency:
With a sweet happy tune,
He's coming soon
For His children like you and me!
Don't tell me, the world is a hopeless old place,
And I might as well just give in
To the doom and gloom:
"Life's a waiting room
For the blow that'll do us all in!"
I can't sympathize
When, before my eyes,
Is a hope shining
Bright as day.
I got to follow the song
That keeps drawing me on,
With my feet dancing all the way.
I'm gonna sing just as long
As it takes for a song
To make sad, heavy spirits free;
I'm gonna keep making music
That carries the secret
That Jesus is Liberty!
I'm gonna turn off the sounds
That would drag people down
To the pit of despondency:
With a sweet happy tune,
He's coming soon
For His children like you and me.
I'm gonna sing just as long
As it takes for a song
To make sad, heavy spirits free;
I'm gonna keep making music
That carries the secret
That Jesus is Liberty!
I'm gonna turn off the sounds
That would drag people down
To the pit of despondency:
With a sweet happy tune,
He's coming soon
For His children like you and me!
Yeah, with a sweet happy tune,
He's coming soon
For His children like you and me!
