SAINT'S SUNG SONG



SAINT'S SUNG SONG


Sing me a song of empty roads
Rolling truck,a heavy load
Tell me of the miles you've seen
Where the Grass is forever green
Roll on rambling truck
 This old world is outta luck

Sing me a song, in frozen fox holes
As the bullets shout, and blood flows
Watch as bullets hit and rockets fly
Tell me soldier, did you pray and die?
Carry on  old weary soldier
Not many brave, live any older

Sing me a song, of the ocean swell
Where the sky draws over like a veil
The wave grabs you in a firm ride
Dance on a board as ya test the tide
Go now surfer, chase your wave
Close to God, close to the brave

Sing a song, of a tired man
See his lives, only he can
Bullets echo,old waves crash
An old rugged truck, outta gas
See the echoes of loves lost
Of a tired man, and a heavy cost

Sing a song, of ancient Galilee
The Savior came, to find you and me
Sing of the cost, He chose to pay
To bring Salvation and pave the way
Come now bow, before the Cross
See the Grace, redeem the lost

Sing a song, sing a brand new song
Write the lyrics, and sing along
Live for Christ, where you live today
Listen close, for the words He'll say
Sing a song believer, let's hear you sing
Give the Glory, to God our king
AMEN
