My life flows on in endless song Above earth's lamentation I hear the sweet and distant hymn That hails a new creation In every triumph; every trial I hear the music ringing It finds an echo in my soul How can I keep from singing? Interlude And when my joys and comforts die The Lord my Savior liveth
And when the darkness gathers round Songs in the night He giveth No storm can shake my inmost calm When to that refuge clinging Since Christ is Lord of heaven and earth How can I keep from singing? How can I keep from singing? How can I keep from singing? ---
