It was...
It was a while ago
I was faced with
some obstacles that I...
I wrote a song.
Well, it's more of a prayer.
And I'll give you
the first few lines and then,
Neil Larson on the Hammond B-3
and the Webb sisters
will unfold the song.
If it be your will
[cheering and whistling]
that I speak no more
and my voice be still
as it was before,
I will speak no more
I shall abide until
I am spoken for
if it be your will.
If it be your will
that a voice be true,
from this broken hill
I will sing to you.
From this broken hill
all your praises
they shall ring.
If it be your will
to let me sing.
