My life flows on in endless song
Amidst earth's lamentation
I hear the real though far off hymn
That hails a new creation
Through all the tumult and the strife
I hear the music ringing
It sounds an echo in my soul
How can I keep from singing?
What though the tempest round me roars,
I know the truth, it liveth,
What though the darkness round me close,
Songs in the night it giveth
No storm can shake my inmost calm
While to that rock I'm clinging
Since love is lord of heaven and earth
How can I keep from singing?
To prison cell and dungeon vile
Our thoughts of love are winging
With those who sing songs of lament
How can I keep from singing?
When tyrants tremble, sick with fear
And hear their death knell ringing
When friends rejoice both far and near
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 messianic peace my heart
A fountain ever springing
All things are mine since I am theirs
How can I keep from singing?
