Chorus 1:
A         D           A         D
I’m not a savior, and I’m not a saint
    A            D         A         D
The man with the answers I certainly ain’t
A          D               A               D
I wouldn’t tell you what’s right or what’s wrong
A          D         A
I’m just a singer of songs


          A              D            A 
But I can take you for a walk along a little country stream
      A                    D                A 
I can make you see through lovers’ eyes and understand their dreams
      A               D                A 
I can help you hear a baby’s laugh and feel the joy it brings
       A              D       A  
Yes, I do it with the songs I sing


Chorus 2: 
I’m not a prophet, and I’m not a priest
I’m not a wise man who’s come from the East
I wouldn’t tell you what’s right or what’s wrong
I’m just a singer of songs


But I can take you to a city where a man was crucified
I can tell you how He lived, and I can tell you why He died
I can help proclaim the glory of this mighty king of kings
Yes, I can do it with the songs I sing


Chorus 3:
I’m not a great man. I don’t claim to be
But when I meet my Maker and He questions me
I won’t hang my head. I’ll stand proud and strong
and say, “I was a singer. Lord, I was a singer
Yes, I was a singer of songs
