Verse 1
Think you're discouraged?
Try writing music,
True success is a maze,
And you're never quite through it.
You'll spend hours of time,
Reams full nof paper,
Buy hardware and software,
And watch dreams turn to vapour.
Climb
So you say you'll stop writing and singing your songs,
It's futile,it's hopeless,but then before long.
Chorus
A songs burning in you,
And shaking your bones,
Lord it's burning,it's burning
Won't leave you alone.
A songs burning in you,
With each heartbeat ,more heat,
And you could no more be silent,
Than vow not to breathe,
A songs burning in you.
Verse 2
For every famed writer,
There's a thousand or more,
Who sit there in silence,
And write songs by the score,
You sharpen your lyrics,
With God's Holy Spirit
Pour your heart in your music
But few get to hear it.
Chorus
Bridge
Despite your setbacks your mind rings with songs,
One hundred unspoken for each written down.
God's gift is your music,you have this one choice,
You can close up your heart or lift up your voice.
Chorus and end.
