Lyric
Let’s sing along with the lyrics!
The steps that lead to any church
Form a stairway to a star
They’re part of God and should be trod
More often than they areI believe in the man in the sky
I believe with his help I’ll get by
My footsteps may falter
My eyes may grow dim
But he’s my Gibraltar
I’m trusting in himThough a sparrow is all I may be
On me he will still keep an eye
Yes I’m singing his praise
Till the end of my days
I believe in the man in the skySparrow, sparrow am I
Keep an eye
Yes I’m singing his praise
Till the end of my days
I believe in the man in the sky
