Sing A Song

Sing a song of destiny, sing it

upon the harp where in sweet

sound it can be heard.

Sing a song of love, sing it

from a lovers cry so in soulful

harmony it can touch.

Sing a song of sorrow, sing it

without joy so that in sadness

it can be understood.

Sing a song of happiness, sing it

with the soaring sounds of a

chorus strong and

it will be heard.

Sing a song of lament, sing it

upon the drum where in pounding

thump it can be felt and

still be heard.

Sing a song of times now gone,

but sing it in celebration to those

who have crossed your way, their

spirit to guide the journeys to

 take in future days.

Sing a song of hope, sing it with a

fervent shout letting all who hear

know you care and

you are there.

Sing a song of life, sing it upon

a tablet strong and it shall stay

the course for those who have

lost their way.

No one can promise these things

you do to bring about not cares or

woes, but surely these simple

 tasks to sing aloud for all to hear

 can bring contentment and some

peace for all

to share.
