- 1My life flows on in endless song;
- Amid earth's lamentation,
- I hear the sweet, tho' far-off hymn
- That hails a new creation;
- Thro' all the tumult and the strife
- I hear the music ringing;
- It finds an echo in my soul,
- How can I keep from singing?
- 2What tho' my joys and comforts die,
- The Lord my Helper liveth!
- What tho' the darkness gather round;
- Songs in the night he giveth!
- No storm can shake my inmost calm
- While to that refuge clinging;
- Since God is Lord of heav'n and earth,
- How can I keep from singing?
- 3I lift mine 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 God makes fresh my heart,
- A fountain ever springing;
- All things are mine, since I am His
- How can I keep from singing?
