There's a sound in the distance i know all too well
and the voices inside me my heart cannot tell
the singin' i long for has been taken from me
unspoken mem'ries forever will be.
chorus
way up on a hill still callin' my name
inside a tower so steady it sways
it's a ringin' for mothers and children who dwell
in a home full o' love 'neath that ol' mission bell.
now the night passes slowly and the mornin' comes soon
and i should be a sleepin' beside only you
but my head lays heavy in the choices i made
may God keep you close to him whenever i pray.
