Singing Our Faith ‎#251

251. Over My Head

Refrain:
Over my head, I hear music in the air;
over my head, I hear music in the air;
over my head I hear music in the air;
there must be a God somewhere.

1 Oh, when the world is silent,
I hear music in the air.
oh, when the world is silent,
I hear music in the air.
oh, when the world is silent,
I hear music in the air.
There must be a God somewhere. [Refrain]

2 And when I'm feeling lonely,
I hear music in the air.
and when I'm feeling lonely,
I hear music in the air.
and when I'm feeling lonely,
I hear music in the air.
There must be a God somewhere. [Refrain]

3 Now when I think on Jesus,
I hear music in the air.
now when I think on Jesus,
I hear music in the air.
now when I think on Jesus,
I hear music in the air.
There must be a God somewhere. [Refrain]
