Take the Music
by Tim Sheppard

Album: Forever

I've stepped out on the stage
In a thousand places
They say, Knock 'em dead,
Bring a smile to their faces
Tell me when will they see
I'm not the one who sets them free
And I'll never be anything more
Than what You make me

Lord, I feel just like a child
After years of livin'
And I don't know if I have
Anything worth givin'
Just let me hold to Your hand
And Lord, please help them understand
I'll never go anywhere unless You take me
Unless You take me

And if You take away the music
If You take away the song
I'll find another way to tell You that I love You
'Cause it wan't the music in me
That hung upon the tree
Take the music, Lord,
But don't take Your love from me

When I write the last few lines on the closing pages
No more curtains, no more lights, no more stages
I will fall to my knees
Lay on the ground at Your feet
And praise You for the love You gave to save me
You gave to save me

And if You take away the music
If You take away the song
I'll find another way to tell You that I love You
'Cause it wan't the music in me
That hung upon the tree
Take the music, Lord...
But don't take Your love...
From me

(Take the music)
(But don't take Your love)
(Take the music)
(But don't take Your love)
(Take the music)
You can have everything I own
(But don't take Your love)
Don't take Your love
(Take the music)
You can have everything You want
(But don't take Your love)
Don't take Your love
(Take the music)
(But don't take Your love)
