I search for happiness
I find peace and rest
when I sit down and sing me a song.
Sing me a song.
Sing me a song.
When I come to the end of my journey,
I know it won't be long
Till I cross that silent river
Don't cry, just sing me a song
Though our burdens are not light
Always fighting for the right
everything seems to always go wrong
we could find peace of mind
if together we could find time
to sit down and sing just one song
Sing me a song, sing me a song
When I come to the end of my journey
I know it won't be long
Till I cross that silent river
Don't cry, just sing me a song
When I reach the other shore,
meet loved ones once more,
join in the happy angel throng.
If I could forever sing,
let the hallelujahs ring,
I'd be singing a hallelujah song.
Sing me a song.
Sing me a song.
When I come to the end of my journey,
I know it won't be long
till I cross this silent river.
Don't cry, just sing me a song.
Don't cry, just sing me a song.
