Singing Brings Us Closer

I remember when
My mother used to sing
Oh, the joy that her voice could bring
When I'm lost and I'm afraid
And I long to see her face
Singing bring her closer to me

When our brother traveled on
I said we had to carry on
Even though the path was dark to see
But I know he's here tonight
'Cause I surely feel his light
Singing brings him closer to me

We gather here
To bring our old friends near
Oh, it brings us closer
Yes, it brings us closer
Singing brings us closer to thee

I look back on the days
The time seemed oh, so strange
Struggle, injustice, and despair
But we marched right through that harm
Joining voices, joining arms
Oh, singing brought us closer to free

Oh, when we lift our voice
And our souls rejoice
Oh, it brings us closer (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Yes, it brings us closer
Singing brings us closer to thee

Oh, it brings us (oh, it brings us closer)
Yes, it brings us closer (yes, it brings us closer)
Singing brings us closer, oh, yes (singing brings us closer to thee)
Oh, it brings us closer (oh, it brings us closer)
Yes, it brings us closer (yes, it brings us closer)
(I know, I know) singing brings us closer to thee
