If there were no song Only silence stretching on and on and on Then my heart would barely beat for my soul it could not speak If there were no song If there were no song rhymes to write upon Then for surely I would die for my life would be a lie If there were no song Would God still be listening if saints and angels couldn't sing? If there were voices but no singing If a man Would the heavens come crushing down to this barren ground? If there were no song, no song If there were no song Would God still be listening if saints and angels couldn't sing? If there were no song Only silence stretching on and on and on Then my heart would barely beat for my soul it could not speak If there were no song, no song, no song If there were no song If there were no song, no song
