Singin’ for You

I was born to a happy handclappin'
Singin' family way down south
We didn't have a lot of money
But I can tell ya
There was plenty of love in our house
When we are up against the wall
Or about to fall
Or didn't know what to do
We'd bring our troubles to you
You'd give us a song
And somehow, it would pull us through

So, I'm gonna keep singin' for You
I'll never stop singin' for You
I'm gonna make a stand
Just like You planned
I'm gonna sing for You
I'm gonna keep singin' for You
I'll never stop singin' for You
No matter where I go
Or who I get to know
I'll always be singin' for You

My daddy wrote the songs
And he taught me how to sing
"I wouldn't take nothin' for my journey now"
I was just a baby
Couldn't sing it to blame my folks
I tell Ya I was plenty loud
Well, I made my choice
To keep a-liftin' my voice
You're the One I'm gonna lift it to
And by Your grace
Until I see Your face
I tell Ya what I plan to do

I'm gonna keep singin' for You
I'll never stop singin' for You
I'm gonna make a stand
Just like You planned
I'm gonna sing for You
I'm gonna keep singin' for You
I'll never stop singin' for You
No matter where I go
Or who I get to know
I'll always be singin' for You

I'm gonna keep singin' for You
I'll never stop singin' for You
I'm gonna make a stand
Just like You planned
I'm gonna sing for You
I'm gonna keep singin' for You
I'll never stop singin' for You
No matter where I go
Or who I get to know
I'll always be singin' for You...
