The heart is looking for a song to sing
A song not of regrets for a heart that's broken
A song not of forgotten promises made
A song not of death and mourning
A song not of betrayal and distrust
A song not of anguish and pain
But a song from a heart that's thankful and joyful
A song of victory for the oppressed
A song of the sea calm and blue
A song of the wind subtle and meek
A song of appreciation of the morning dew
A song which the heart every day is made anew
A song of God's presence in a heart bound to succeed
A song of breakthrough for a man whose hope's once denuded
And a song for a heart restored with an eternal smile
