Up above my head I hear music in the air
Up above my head there's a melody so bright and fair
I can hear when I'm all alone
Even in those times when I feel all hope is gone
Up above my head I hear joy bells ringing
Up above my head I hear angels singing
There must be a God somewhere
There must be a God somewhere

I hear music in the air
I hear music everywhere
There must be a God somewhere

There must be a God somewhere
There must be a God somewhere
There must be a God somewhere
