On My Life Lyrics

On my life I swear I 'll never let you down
On my life comes what may we 're heaven bounded
The time has come and we must stand, hand in hand
Sink or swim, we ' re moving and have faith within
On my life all in one I know we ' ll win
On my life rest assured I'll never bend
I declared the rights I was to defend
Go on step fast and victory is a surety
Guarantee, security from almighty
On my life I 'd pledge with all solemnity
Yeah! Hey, now - w-w
Hum! Hum! Huuum!
On my life I swear I 'll never let you down
On my life comes what may we 're heaven bounded
Time has come and we must stand, hand in hand
Sink or swim, we 're moving and have faith within
On my life all in one I know we ' ll win
Oh! my love, on my life
On my life I swear to you
On my life oh, oh!
I swear to you any ... day now
On my life I know we 'll win
I know I know It can ' t go wrong, yeah!

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
