Gaither Vocal Band - I'm Gonna Sing Lyrics

I'm gonna sing just as long as it takes for a song 
To make sad, heavy spirits free 
I'm gonna keep making music that carries the secret 
That Jesus is liberty 
I'm gonna turn off the sounds that would drag people down 
To the pit of despondency 
With the sweet happy tune 
He is coming soon 
For His children like you and me 

It's a song that'll carry a message along 
Through the densest of foggy nights 
And a tune is the rope 
That can throw a man hope 
When he's going down for the third time 
It's a sweet melody that can cut your heart free 
From the chains of a past defeat 
You can suddenly see through the sweet harmony 
A path for your wand'ring feet 

I'm gonna sing just as long as it takes for a song 
To make sad, heavy spirits free 
I'm gonna keep making music that carries the secret 
That Jesus is liberty 
I'm gonna turn off the sounds that would drag people down 
To the pit of despondency 
With the sweet happy tune 
He is coming soon 
For His children like you and me 

Don't tell me the world is a hopeless old place 
And I might as well give in 
To the doom and gloom-life's a waiting room 
For the blow that'll do us all in 
I can't sympathize when before my eyes 
Is a hope shining as bright as day 
I gotta follow the song that keeps drawing me on 
With my feet dancing all the way 

I'm gonna sing just as long as it takes for a song 
To make sad, heavy spirits free 
I'm gonna keep making music that carries the secret 
That Jesus is liberty 
I'm gonna turn off the sounds that would drag people down 
To the pit of despondency 
With the sweet happy tune 
He is coming soon 
For His children like you and me
