U2 - 40 Lyrics

Album: War

Songwriters: Adam Clayton, Dave Evans, Paul Hewson, Larry (jr) Mullen

Also in: Miscellaneous Under A Blood Red Sky

{Sing this with me, this is 40}

Waited patiently for the Lord
He tried and heard my cry
He lift me up out of the pits
Out of the miry clay

I will sing, sing a new song
I will sing, sing a new song
How long to sing this song?
How long to sing this song?
How long, how long, how long?
How long to sing this song?

He set my feet upon a rock
Made my footsteps firm
Many will see
Many will see and hear

I will sing, sing a new song
I will sing, sing a new song
{Sing it!}
How long to sing this song?
How long to sing this song?
How long, how long, how long
How long, to sing this song?

{Thank you, goodnight!}

How long to sing this song?
How long to sing this song?
How long to sing this song?
How long to sing this song?
How long to sing this song?
How long to sing this song?
How long to sing this song?
How long?
