C# F# C# G# C# G#
My life flows on endless song above earth's lamentation
C# F# C# G# C#
I hear the real, though far off hymn...that hails a new creation
G# C# G#
Through all the tumult and the strife...I hear it's music ringing
C# F# C# A#m G# C#
It sounds an echo in my soul, how can I keep from singing?

C# F# C# G# C# G#
What through the thempest loudly roars, I hear the truth, it liveth
C# F# C# G# C#
What though the darkness round me close, songs in the night it giveth
G# C# G#
No storm can shake my inmost calm...while to that rock I'm clinging
C# F# C# A#m
Since Love is Lord of heaven and earth, how can I keep from singing?

C# F# C# G# C# G#
I lift my eyes, the cloud grows thin, I see the blue above it
C# F# C# G# C#
And day by day this pathway clears, since first I learned to love it
G# C# G#
The peace of God restores my soul, a fountain ever springing
C# F# C# A#m G# C#
All things are mine since I am loved...how can I keep from singing?
