Iron Lung

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.

I was born without a sound

I didn't cry, so they put me in an iron lung

All alone and nearing death

But I heard Your heartbeat pulsing through my chest

Oh, oh, oh, oh

You took my breath away

So I would learn to need You

My mother prayed I'd make a noise

'If You do this for me then You can have my son back'

My father made a deal with God

And then he left me stranded in the arms of love

Oh, oh, oh, oh

You took my breath away

So I would learn to need You

To learn that I could never ever live without You

Oh, You take my breath away

You take my breath away, and all those years ago

I could feel You hide me in the shadow of Your wing

And straight away I loved You 'cause You were singing songs

That someday I would sing

That someday I would sing

There's a heartbeat

There's a heartbeat

There's a heartbeat

Can you hear it?

You're my heartbeat

Can you hear it?

You're my heartbeat

I can feel it

I can feel it

And I heard the sound of Your voice

I felt the breath in my lungs

I felt the joy in my bones

And I started to sing, I started to sing

I felt the wonder of love

I knew the kindness of God

I joined with the angels above

And I started to sing, I started to sing for You

And I started to sing for You

And I heard the sound of Your voice

I felt Your breath in my lungs

I felt the joy in my bones

And I started to sing, I started to sing for You

And I started to sing for You

Forever I'll sing for You
