my life goes on in endless song
above earth's lamentation
I hear the sweet though far-off hymn
that hails a new creation
above the tumult and the strife
I hear its music ringing
it sounds an echo in my soul
how can I keep from singing?
what though my joys and comforts die
the Lord my Saviour liveth
what tho' the darkness round me close
songs in the night he giveth
no storm can shake my inmost calm
while to that refuge clinging
if Christ is Lord of heaven and earth
how can I keep from singing?
I lift my eyes, the cloud grows thin
I see the blue above it
and day by day this pathway smooths
since first I learned to love it
the peace of Christ makes fresh my heart
a fountain ever springing
all things are mine since I am his
how can I keep from singing?
