Let Me Sing

Kenny Klein

I climbed up on the mountain

While the moon rose in the sky

I heard the nighthawk singing

And the great horned owl did cry

I stood clad in the starlight

My arms raised to the night

And I watched Venus rising

And unto her I did cry

CH

Let me sing unto the lord and lady

Let me sing a merry tune

Let me sing unto the lord and lady

Let me dance beneath the moon

While there’s music in the mountains

While the moon is in the sky

Let me sing unto the lord and lady

Until the day I die

 

Now when the day is tiring

And I’m weary with my cares

And when I feel like crying

In my pain and my despair

I remember how the nighthawk

And the great horned owl did cry

And I look to Venus rising

And I sing out to the night
