They come up from the porches
And up from the kitchen windows as mamas watch their babies play
They come up as the moonlight shines in at the bedsides
They rise above steeples on the sweet Sabbath day
My soul delights in a song of the heart
When your heart is true heaven's never that far
If you're needing answers just let your voice ring
A song of the heart is a prayer unto me
If you're high on a mountain
Or alone on the ocean
Or our heart is broken and you can't find your way
Turn your hope to tomorrow
Let go of the sorrow
And know that I hear every word that you say
My soul delights in a song of the heart
When your heart is true heaven's never that far
If you're needing answers just let your voice ring
A song of the heart is a prayer unto me
A song of the heart is a prayer unto me
You might say you can't carry a tune in a bucket
And to sing or not sing is no question your choice
But as the choir gets louder every soul feels the power
And the devil runs scared from the light in your voice
My soul delights in a song of the heart
When your heart is true heaven's never that far
If you're feeling thankful, just let your voice ring
He says, "A song of the heart is a prayer unto me"
If you're needing answers, just let your voice ring
He says, "A song of the heart is a prayer unto me"
