Your Melody

In these times that are tough
And the whole World’s had enough
Here’s a melody written, just for you
Although without any words
Was it written
For this story is all about you
So, tell it with pride
And with God by your side
This melody will help see you through.

So, each day, after day, after day, after day
Day after day, after day, after day, after day
Let it play, let it play, let it play, let it play
Play, let it play, let it play, let it play, let it play
Then resolutely.

Shut all your windows
And close all your doors
And in your isolation
Strengthen that resolve
Although now at its worst
It may appear that we’re all cursed
So, by staying the course
We shall all then soldier forth 

Perhaps now and then
As some doubt filters in
That through these long days
And while your melody plays
You’ll have time to reflect
How you are blessed in other ways

Now before the end
There’s a message here to send
That you’re never alone
Or left to fight on your own
For not far out of sight
You will find a guiding light
Across that bridge of time
And to your own rhyme.

Throw open your windows
And fling wide your doors
Then sing forth your story
Hear the echo forming 

It’s echoing, echoing, echoing, echoing
Echoing, echoing, echoing, echoing, echoing
It’s echoing, echoing, echoing, echoing
Echoing, echoing, echoing, echoing, echoing

Although faint at first
It will spread round the Earth
And we shall all join as one
Until this marathon’s run
For we will know in the end we have won
Nothing more left to be done
We shall all come on through
Making sure that we do
For the birds are still singing in the trees
And the Spring blossom is blooming in
the morning
While this World keeps on turning and turning
Should this melody end
Well - just play it again
And know all you foretold
Has come true

It was all for you.
