Sing me a song of praise and glory
Help this wandering child to understand.
That when I close my eyes in sleep eternal
I´ll be clinging to a saving hand.

I want you to sing to me about the rock of ages,
And sing about eternity so sweet.
So that when I take my last breath of life
I´ll awaken at my saviour´s feet.

I want you to tell me about Paul and Matthew
And sing about my dear saviour´s birth
And tell about his trials and tribulations.
While he walked upon his heathen Earth.

Come on and sing me a song of praise and glory
Help this wandering child to understand.
That when I close my eyes in sleep eternal
I´ll be clinging to a saving hand.
I´ll be clinging to a saving hand.
