Analysis of There's A Song In The Air

Lydia Roberson 1962 (Stuart, Va)



There's a song in the air and it's telling me
of Jesus's love when he died for me.
I long to rise up in the skies
where the song softly echoes of his love for me.

It tells the story of his everlasting love,
when he died on the cross to wash our sins away.
And I long to rise up in the skies
where the song softly echoes of his love for me.

There's a song in the air and it's telling me
of Jesus's love when he died for me.
and I long to rise up in the skies
where the song softly echoes of his love for me.
