When my last song is sung and my life's work is done
And my old faithful guitar loses tone
You won't find me troubled then, wishing I could sing again
When my last song is sung I'll be gone

What a gift the Lord has shared with a man who never cared
Claiming every note I'd written for my own
So before it comes my time there's a song of thanks in line
Before my Lord and Savior calls me home

Let me sing a song for Jesus every day
For he's the one who guides me every step of the way
He's my soul inspiration and the one who guides my pen
So let the last song I sing be for him
