Alto Wings Beneath Your Sky

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a song that took me years to find A harmony I'd left behind Through the empty rooms and quiet pews I prayed the Lord would send me news Then one Sunday morning, clear and bright I heard a voice and knew it right [Chorus] Oh, what a joy, what a gift from above A faithful friend, a steady love Through the laughter and the tears we've known We were never meant to walk alone With faith to hold and grace to give This is how the good Lord meant to live [Verse 2] Cornerstone Church and a country tune Two old hearts in the month of June You took the lead, I took the high Alto wings beneath your sky Seventy-eight and still we sing Daph, you brought back everything [Chorus] Oh, what a joy, what a gift from above A faithful friend, a steady love Through the laughter and the tears we've known We were never meant to walk alone With faith to hold and grace to give This is how the good Lord meant to live [Bridge] When I lost my Mack and the world went gray You and Albert never turned away Lucky at the door, your hand in mine Forgiveness, strength, a love divine [Verse 3] Line dance Mondays, Fridays too Twenty hearts all loving you We practice songs and laugh till late Trading gems the Lord creates May and November, worlds apart But Daph, you live inside my heart [Chorus] Oh, what a joy, what a gift from above A faithful friend, a steady love Through the laughter and the tears we've known We were never meant to walk alone With faith to hold and grace to give This is how the good Lord meant to live [Outro] So sing with me, sweet Daph, sing on Two voices blending into one Karen's grateful, heaven knows This is how a friendship grows
