CHORUS
My Piano Savior is the Lord,
He brought new life to music
I had given up and pushed away, and
My, my, my, I'll sing my praises to the Lord!
And it may not be perfect,
But the Lord wants me to play!
Well, circumstances were, we were moving out of town,
That old unused piano can be sold for U-Haul money,
I know you like to plink around, but time just won't be found,
With two kids and a new job, well, just think about it,
Honey, won't you?
REPEAT CHORUS
Michelle was singing at the church, she said, Here's what we'll do,
If you can play piano, then next Wednesday night will do.
And here's a little keyboard you can practice on 'til then,
Just make a joyful noise to Him and we'll all join right in, and
REPEAT CHORUS
Norman and sweet Richardean were pastors by and by.
They said, You've got potential if you practice and you try,
And there's an old piano in our basement you can play,
Just help us haul it up the stairs, we're giving it away, and
REPEAT CHORUS
Well, fingers strike the keyboard, and the hammers strike the strings,
And brittle plastic parts will break when old pianos sing.
Just move the good parts to the middle, broken parts out to the end,
And keep on making music with the middle closing in, and
REPEAT CHORUS
Well, Rosie was a teacher, tuned pianos on the side,
I told her 'bout the keys a-sticking, breaking, Won't you look inside?
If you'll just buy the parts, we'll put new life into it yet.
And that piano fixin' party was a night I won't forget, and
REPEAT CHORUS
Now, piano means to play it soft, don't play too loud, you know,
Just like the Holy Spirit when He whispers in my soul.
That still, small voice can be a mighty force in any crowd,
And my Piano Savior never needs to yell too loud, and
REPEAT CHORUS (2-3X)
