A Song For A Sunday.

You’ll Never Walk Alone.

Lyrics: American lyricist, librettist, theatrical producer and director Oscar Greeley Clendenning Hammerstein II and American composer Richard Charles Rodgers, (Rodgers and Hammerstein).
Vocals: English beat group Gerry and the Pacemakers (Group formed in 1956)

You’ll Never Walk Alone.

When you walk through a storm,
Hold your head up high,
And don’t be afraid of the dark.
At the end of a storm,
There’s a golden sky,
And the sweet silver song of a lark.
Walk on through the wind,
Walk on through the rain,
For your dreams be tossed and blown.
Walk on, walk on,
With hope in your heart,
And you’ll never walk alone.
You’ll never walk alone.
Walk on, walk on,
With hope in your heart,
And you’ll never walk alone.
You’ll never walk alone.

END.
