William Elliott Whitmore - There's hope for you Lyrics

My little sparrow there is hope for you
Your life has just begun
And I could not do what I wanted to
But I fear my time is almost done
But through your actions truth will carry on
Go forth with joy in your heart
And even though I will be gone
You've got to play your part
Listen to me now...

You will overcome, I promise you
And be whatever it is that you want to be
There is hope for you
Oh there's hope for you
But it's much too late for me

Wayward weeping voices that you will hear
Each with their own story to tell
And you have the choice to bend your ear
And treat your fellow humans well
So goodbye my little sparrow
It's time that I must go
To keep on the straight and narrow
There's something you must know
Listen to me now...

CHORUS
