If Life Were A Song (7-11-2000) © 2011

If life were a song you had started to write,

A new note with each breaking dawn,

How would it sound when the writing was through,

Dry ink on the page and you’re gone?

As the days turn to weeks and the months into years,

Each moment you live will become,

A part of the you you’ll be leaving behind,

Will everyone gain or just some?

A memorable tune is always a joy,

It dances all day in your head.

Will those who you met sing your praises,

Or will they forget what you said?

When your song comes to mind as it will time to time,

Will people be struck with delight,

And smile and be glad they were part of your life,

If life were a song you had started to write?

CHORUS

A song in your heart is a great place to start,

The right melody put there to stay,

Will make your heart sing as your spirit takes wing,

Letting Jesus compose all the way!
