There Is An Everlasting Song

There is an everlasting song on my lips I got up early so I don't let that song slip And mighty is the voice I'm singing with It beats out all the dread Defeats the eyes of darkness There is an everlasting promise to be made My ink is wet, there is no paper could contain The depth of feeling that I pledge to you Solemn as the sea, solemn as the sea There is an everlasting morning near the sun It burns a hole in my heart, makes me want to run And I would run all day if they give me the choice I hear your voice, I hear your voice I hear your voice There is an everlasting gladness of the heart The stranger looks at me and loves me as I am One day I stand upon the river's scared shore And feel the sun, I feel the sun There is an everlasting sadness all around It's bigger than the news, from this you cannot run A woman's magazine, a column in the mail Can't help you now, can't help you now I love the summer birds, they sing no word of lie The air is cruel, the frost will cast them as they fly But glorious the sun returns to wake the year They show no fear, they show no fear They show no fear
