I'm a plain brown sparrow
but I'd like to sing
please, don't frighten me away
for I'm a wild thing
though my hollow bones are broken
the voice ain't in the wings

I'm a colt, just standing up
sometimes my knees shake
sometimes I leap and frolic
sometimes I'm not awake
but my spirit is intact
and it will
never break

let me sing a song to you
I may have to weep
but it will sound within you
deep calls out to deep
let my melody surround you
the words will never lie
though your own heart
break within you
and you may have to cry
it's a tune for singin'
in a rainy sky


Wednesday's child is
full of woe
suchlike I was born
I've been on earth to suffer
worldweary
and forlorn
always needing to be loved
ever the foresworn

but I never gave it up
I knew someday I'd win
like a glove,
this thing called love
becoming vice and gin
I searched for it all without

BUT FOUND IT

WITHIN

[chorus]

BRIDGE:
I found my answer in The Lord
in Him I abide
I found out the answer
was on the
INSIDE
true love is not a mirage
because
true love never hides

"Salvation Story by SoulSurvivor"

Went through a bad patch
But thank Jesus Christ
and some beautiful people
I'm on the mend

It's 4:25am so I've got to rest again
God willing I'll be back reading
Tomorrow!
