Lyrics

When I Sing    03:37
written by   Don Stevenson
 
I came to sing my song
Even though I know I don’t belong
But when I sing
My song grows in me
 
I’ve been given this timeslot
Even though it soon will be forgot
But when I sing
That’s where I want to be
 
Can’t worry about what people say
You can’t please them all anyway
But when I sing
You know it pleases me
 
Its like a raging storm
All wild and wet
Like a broken heart
That can’t forget
Like a caged in song
Stomping through the pain
There’s somethings you know
You can’t contain
And when I sing
You know it grows in me
 
Sublime solo
 
Between a rock and a hard place
You know I received amazing grace
And when I sing
Grace grows in me
 
I’ve been reaching for a star
Caught a moonbeam in a jar
When I sing
That’s where I want to be
 
There’s  a substance of things hoped for
And an evidence of things unseen
When I sing
Faith grows in me
 
Soon the earth will shake
And the mountains quake
And the rich and poor
Will find no escape
Look up and see a flaming sky
Then I’ll know why
when I sing
It’s a mystery
 
End
