letra de songs for the people - rosephanye powell

Loading...

let me make the songs for the people
songs for the old and young;
songs to stir like a battle-cry
wherever they are sung

not for the clashing of sabres
for carnage nor for strife;
but songs to thrill the hearts of men
with more abundant life

let me make the songs for the weary
amid life’s fever and fret
till hearts shall relax their tension
and careworn brows forget

let me sing for little children
before their footsteps stray
sweet anthems of love and duty
to float o’er life’s highway

i would sing for the poor and aged
when shadows dim their sight;
of the bright and restful mansions
where there shall be no night

our world, so worn and weary
needs music, pure and strong
to hush the jangle and discords
of sorrow, pain, and wrong
music to soothe all its sorrow
till war and crime shall cease;
and the hearts of men grown tender
girdle the world with peace
