I saw myself today
I´ve smiled and looked away
Saddened by my visible life
Sorrow cut me like a knife
Nobody knows you without any doubt
Nobody wants to know you, when you´re down and out

So sing a hymn for my soul
Stand by me as I grow
I´m just trying to climb up nine hills in seven short days
Sing a hymn for my soul

I saw myself today
Didn´t like what I had to say
So right, I could only be wrong
Trouble is when I´m alone
No doubt, no self-control, not a reason to cry
I feel like empty rain, through an empty sky

So Sing a hymn for my soul
Stand by me as I grow
I´m just trying to climb up nine hills in seven short days
So sing a hymn for my soul

I saw myself today
I looked good, yes I had to say
Polished TV won´t shine no more
Flyin´ dragons surround my door
Even when I go crazy
To my own self I´ll be true
Ain´t nobody´s business what I do

So sing a hymn for my soul
Stand by me as I grow
I´m just trying to climb up nine hills in seven short days
Sing a hymn for my soul
Tell me about it

Sing a hymn for my soul
Sing a hymn for my soul
Stand by me as I grow
Won´t you stand by me
Little girl, you know it
Sing a hymn for my soul
One more

Sing a hymn for my soul
Stand by me as I grow
I´m just tryin´ to climb up nine hills in seven short days
Sing a hymn for my soul
Let´s go home

Sing a hymn for my soul
Sing a hymn for my soul
Stand by me as I grow
Won´t you do that for me
Take me all the way home
Sing a hymn for my soul
Sing a hymn for my soul
Come on baby
Stand by me as I grow
