Gloria Gaither - I'm Gonna Sing lyrics

rate 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 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 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 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/

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 a sweet happy tune He is 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 the sweet happy tune He is coming soon for His children like you and me/
