If I Were A Singer Lyrics & Chords By Steve Camp

If I were a singer, I'd sing my song for you
And my pen would point out all the things you're made of

And the only thing that I could sing would be love.

If I were a planet or better yet a star,

I would try to show the Universe who you are.
I would take my place among some constellation,
I'd be visible from every observation,
I'd be a sign among the heavens to each nation,
And overwhelm the wise men with the wonder of creation.



These are troubled days,
I want to live my life in a special way.
These are troubled days
I want to live my life for you and point the way.
If I were the blue sky, all my winds would blow for you,
I would storm upon the night to show your power.

I would rage upon the earth with heavy showers

Hurricane upon all men to make them cower.
Make them watch me 'til that unexpected hour

When you come again from heaven's loft tower.

These are troubled days,
I want to live my life in a special way.

These are troubled days

I want to live my life for you and point the way.



If I were a singer, I'd sing my song for you

And my pen would point out all the things you're made of
And the only thing that I could sing would be love.
I would sing 'til the faithless ones received it,
Until the children of your wayward church believed it.

I would sing it to the governments and leaders

And to the writers who have misled all the readers.
I would sing it though they jailed me and they killed me.
Let them empty me of life, for you have filled me.


These are troubled days,
I want to live my life in a special way.

These are troubled days

I want to live my life for you and point the way.
