Bless My Soul

[Verse 1]
I know promises thought and spoken
Some are kept, and some are broken
Some are sprouts the weeds are choking
Left alone to die
There are those whose hope is taken
There are those whose hearts are breaking
Surely I am not mistaken
I can hear the cry
Ah, oh

[Chorus 1]
Bless my soul
I've got something that'll never grow old
Bless your heart
You've been looking for a way to start

[Verse 2]
Desperation's lonely achin'
Kills the smile that you've been fakin'
I can feel your heartstrings breakin'
I want to comfort you
Surely life is worth His dyin'
No more need for needless cryin'
No more need for deedless tryin'
Old is changed to new

[Chorus 2]
Bless my soul
I've got something that will never grow old
Bless your heart
I know you're looking for a way to start
Bless my soul
I've got a life that I can have and hold
Bless your heart
Take the new and let the old depart
Yeah, bless my soul
(Bless my soul)
I've got something that'll never grow old
Bless your heart
(Bless your heart)
I know you're looking for a way to start
Bless my soul
(Bless my soul)
Now and then another bud unfolds
Bless your heart
(Bless your heart)
Take a chance and let your pain depart
