LYRICS:
I have heard my fathers calling
From the fields of days gone by
They sing the song that never fades
They tell the tale that never dies
(Chorus)
Every life is a story
Time unfolds with every age
This is only the beginning
The cover and title page
I remember my first funeral
At seven years old I stared into the grave
They told me death was not forever
But death was all there seemed to be that day
(Chorus)
If I live the rest of my life
Deaf and dumb and blind
Oh, the stories I could tell
Just by being alive
I have held a newborn baby
He laid his sleeping head upon my chest
And I could feel my beating heart
Match the quiet rhythm of his breath
