BIRD OF HAPPINESS
Author(s): Singing Sam
Songbook: Aaron David Songbook
KeyWords: Bible Characters,

Goin down the road of life,
Tryin' to see a little bit of light.
Tryin' to catch a small bird
That always seems to escape in the night.
Wooo la, la la la la la la.

Chorus:
Reaching out for that bird of happiness.
That bird always gets away and flies back to its nest.
I don't really know what's right or what's wrong.
I was lookin' as a young man
Still lookin' after I was grown.
Wooo la la la la la la la.

I been livin'a dead life,
Goin' down to the ground.
Circle can't quit turnin'
Till what's been lost has been found.
La la la la la la la.

[Repeat Chorus]

So I finally made up my mind.
I was gonna open my eyes and stop bein' blind.
Then one day someone told me about a man named Jesus.
Had a talk with him, He came in,
And now I'm gonna be with Him for all time.
Wooo la la la la la la la.

Now I've found that bird of happiness.
That bird was a white dove and Heaven is its nest.
He came to me and took away all my fears.
Now I'm gonna be with him for all of my years.
Wooo la la la la la la la.
