Lyrics:
Sometimes in this life
Pain and trouble find me
The world ain't always nice
And folks don't act too kindly
I wouldn't say I'm hopeless
Or gloomy or downhearted
But I can't seem to suppress
Bad thoughts once they've started
But I've found
I have found
That when you sing
When you sing
I feel a little bit closer to everything
That is good in the world

Winter shakes my bones
And gives my soul a chill
This Minnesota cold
I've already had my fill
So let's just stay inside
Maybe you can play piano
We'll sing songs through the night
And let them chilly winds blow as they will
As they will
'Cause when you sing
When you sing
I feel the warmth
Of the coming spring
And all is right with the world

In heaven up above
The angel band and choir
Play their songs of love
For those who have expired
Behind them pearly gates
The streets are paved with gold
And everyone's in a state
Of permanent joy, I'm told
Not concerned
With our world
But when you sing
When you sing
All of them angels quit their trumpeting
And even God turns an ear
