I've smiled and looked away
Saddened by my visible life
Sorrow cut me like a knife
Nobody knows you
Without any doubt
Nobody wants to know you
When you're down and out
So sing a hymn for my soul
Stand by me as I grow
I'm just trying to climb up
Nine hills
In seven short days
Sing a hymn for my soul
I saw myself today
Didn't like
What I had to say
So right
I could only be wrong
Trouble is when I'm alone
No doubt, no self-control
Not a reason to cry
I feel like empty rain
Through an empty sky
So Sing a hymn for my soul
Stand by me as I grow
I'm just trying to climb up
Nine hills
In seven short days
So sing a hymn for my soul
I saw myself today
I looked good
Yes I had to say
Polished TV
Won't shine no more
Flyin' dragons
Surround my door
Even when I go crazy
To my own self
I'll be true
Ain't nobody's business
What I do
So sing a hymn for my soul
Stand by me as I grow
I'm just trying to climb up
Nine hills
In seven short days
Sing a hymn for my soul
Tell me about it
Sing a hymn for my soul
Sing a hymn for my soul
Stand by me as I grow
Won't you stand by me
Little girl, you know it
Sing a hymn for my soul
One more
Sing a hymn for my soul
Stand by me as I grow
I'm just tryin' to climb up
Nine hills
In seven short days
Sing a hymn for my soul
Let's go home
Sing a hymn for my soul
Sing a hymn for my soul
Stand by me as I grow
Won't you do that for me
Take me all the way home
Sing a hymn for my soul
Sing a hymn for my soul
Come on baby
Stand by me as I grow
I saw myself today I've smiled and looked away Saddened by my visible life Sorrow cut me like a knife Nobody knows you Without any doubt Nobody wants to know you When you're down and out So sing a hymn for my soul Stand by me as I grow I'm just trying to climb up Nine hills In seven short days Sing a hymn for my soul I saw myself today Didn't like What I had to say So right I could only be wrong Trouble is when I'm alone No doubt, no self-control Not a reason to cry I feel like empty rain Through an empty sky So Sing a hymn for my soul Stand by me as I grow I'm just trying to climb up Nine hills In seven short days So sing a hymn for my soul I saw myself today I looked good Yes I had to say Polished TV Won't shine no more Flyin' dragons Surround my door Even when I go crazy To my own self I'll be true Ain't nobody's business What I do So sing a hymn for my soul Stand by me as I grow I'm just trying to climb up Nine hills In seven short days Sing a hymn for my soul Tell me about it Sing a hymn for my soul Sing a hymn for my soul Stand by me as I grow Won't you stand by me Little girl, you know it Sing a hymn for my soul One more Sing a hymn for my soul Stand by me as I grow I'm just tryin' to climb up Nine hills In seven short days Sing a hymn for my soul Let's go home Sing a hymn for my soul Sing a hymn for my soul Stand by me as I grow Won't you do that for me Take me all the way home Sing a hymn for my soul Sing a hymn for my soul Come on baby Stand by me as I grow Explain Request ×
