Lyrics
The United States Of My Life
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Today
I have to be beyond any highway
Tonight
I'll still be beyond any starlight
Tomorrow
I'll still be free from any pain or sorrow
I'll still be high to the highest I can grow
I'll still be here, there, now, and then
Tomorrow
I'll still be far behind where the dark lies
Behind the darkness when I close my eyes
Before the Lord in fullness of a man
Forever
I'll be protected whenever I fall
I'll be together united in all
The united states of my life
