There Is An Everlasting Song

C                        F/C         C 
There is an everlasting song on my lips 
C                   F/C                  C  G/B 
I got up early so I don't let that song slip 
Am                             D7 
And mighty is the voice I'm singing with 
                      F/C                   
It beats out all the dread 
                      C 
Defeats the hours of darkness 

  C                      F/C            C 
There is an everlasting promise to be made 
  C                        F/C             C  G/B 
My ink is wet, there is no paper could contain 
 Am                          D7 
The depth of feeling that I pledge to you 
              F/C                   
Solemn as the sea, solemn as the sea 

  C                       F/C             C 
There is an everlasting morning near the sun 
  C                           F/C              C  G/B 
It burns a hole in my heart, makes me want to run 
 Am                         D7 
And I would run all day if they give me the choice 
             F/C                       
I hear your voice, I hear your voice 
                C 
I hear your voice 

( C  F/C  C  F/C ) 
( C  G/B  Am ) 
( D7  F/C  C )                   

  C                       F/C             C 
There is an everlasting gladness of the heart 
  C                           F/C          C  G/B 
The stranger looks at me and loves me as I am 
  Am                      D7 
One day I stand upon the river's scared shore 
             F/C                       
And feel the sun, I'll feel the sun 

C                         F/C            C 
There is an everlasting sadness all around 
C                               F/C              C  G/B 
It's bigger than the news, from this you cannot run 
Am                     D7 
A woman's magazine, a column in the mail 
               F/C                       
Can't help you now, can't help you now 

C                             F/C              C 
I love the summer birds, they sing no word of lie  
C                               F/C                  C  G/B 
The air is cruel the frost will catch them as they fly  
Am                     D7 
But glorious the sun returns to wake the year 
              F/C                       
They show no fear, they show no fear 
                C  F/C  G/D  C                       
They show no fear
