I'm Gonna Sing

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 the sweet happy tune

He is 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 a 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 wand'ring 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 the sweet happy tune

He is 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 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 as bright as day

I gotta 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 the sweet happy tune

He is coming soon

For His children like you and me

Yeah, with the sweet happy tune

He is coming soon

For His children like you and me
