Daughter of God

So much I don’t tell you
So much I don’t say
Maybe I don’t try enough
Maybe it’s my way
Of holding back the waters
Of fencing in the yard
Lord, it gets so lonesome
Lord, it gets so hard
If I could sing like a daughter of God
Like a child of the angels
Like a lover of Jesus
Like a sister of prayer
If I could sing like a daughter of God
Like a child of the angels
If I could sing
I wouldn’t care
I’m a working woman
I sew on my machine
Monday dawn to Saturday
Ev’ry day between
My eyes are on tomorrow
My lips are on their guard
Lord, it gets so lonesome
Lord, it gets so hard
If I could sing like a daughtr of God
Like a child of the angels
Lik a lover of Jesus
Like a sister of prayer
If I could sing like a daughter of God
Like a child of the angels
If I could sing
I wouldn’t care
Half the world is frozen
Half the world is on fire
Half the world stays silent
Half the world’s a choir
If I could join their voices
So loud and sweet and sad
It wouldn’t seem so lonesome
It wouldn’t seem so bad
If I could sing like a daughter of God
Like a child of the angels
Like a lover of Jesus
Like a sister of prayer
If I could sing like a daughter of God
Like a child of the angels
If I could sing
I wouldn’t care
If I could sing (Sing like a daughter of God)
(Like a child of the angels) Like a child of the angels
(Like a lover of Jesus) Like a daughter of God
(Like a sister of prayer) Like a sister of prayer
(If I could) Sing like a daughter of God
Like a child of the angels
If I could sing (Ah-ah-ah)
I wouldn’t care (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
