Originally by John Denver, verses 2 & 3 by Thea Noelle
lyrics
Verse 1:
This old guitar taught me to sing a love song
Showed me how to laugh and how to cry
It introduced me to some friends of mine
And brightened up some days
It helped me make it through some lonely nights
Oh, what a friend to have on a cold and lonely night
Verse 2:
This old guitar taught me turn to Your face
Turned me from my selfish, shallow heart
Gave me words when it was hard to pray
Whispered truth in the noise
Reminded me of Who You’ve always been
Oh, reminded me of Who You’ll always be
Verse 3:
This old guitar reflected the bright blue sky
Watched the sunset once or twice with me
Watched Your stars swirl slowly overhead
And played beside the fire
Reminded me that I am not alone
Oh, how could I be alone?
With who You’ve given me
How could I be alone
