\par
\par I love to hear a choir sing, songs so rich and fair.
\par I love to hear their voices blend across the sweet air,
\par The angelic sounds soothe and bring sweet repose
\par To my wilting weary heart, like a lovely summer rose.
\par
\par Sing me a song of the seas, a funny shanty or two,
\par That I may clap my hands in fun and tap a restless shoe.
\par Sing me a song of sailors returning home safe and sound,
\par Finding their feet once again on firm and solid ground.
\par
\par Sing me a song about nature, of delicate flowers that grow
\par In the wooded forests and the meadows where children go.
\par Sing me a song of the birds that sing in my old apple tree,
\par Then sing me a tale of a caged bird who at last is set free.
\par
\par Sing me a song about lovers, walking down a blossomed lane
\par Holding hands and smiling, knowing they\rquote ll never part again.
\par Sing me a song of their children as they grow and run and play
\par Let me hear their laughter, let me know how they live day by day.
\par
\par Sing me a song about heaven, sing me songs of God\rquote s love,
\par For those are the ones that help me most get to Him above.
\par Sing me a song of the Master as He stills the raging of the sea.
\par Let me know what it\rquote s like in heaven, that\rquote s where I want to be
