A New Tune For the Weary

It takes a wearied man to sing a wearied song It takes a man troubled by things that have gone wrong It takes a man afraid that life has passed him by It takes a man whose anguished soul within him cries. It takes a man who dares believe there is still hope It takes a man who tries again when the answer is nope It takes a man whose failures still silently scream It takes a man, who though crippled, knows how to dream. It takes a man broken and ashamed with dismay It takes a man with vision for a better day It takes a man who in defeat still shows his face It takes a man who will hum a new song of grace.
