Lyrics

It was a, a while ago
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 Larsen on the Hammond B-3 and the Webb Sisters
Will unfold the song
If it be your will 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
If it be your will 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
If it be your will, if there is a choice
Let the rivers fill, let the hills rejoice
Let your mercy spill on all these burning hearts in hell
If it be your will to make us well
And draw us near, oh, bind us tight
All your children here in their rags of light
In our rags of light, all dressed to kill
And end this night, if it be your will
And end this night, if it be your will
Oh, if it be your will
Oh, oh
Oh, if it be your will
Hattie and Charley Webb, the sublime Webb Sisters
