[00:00.10]My life goes on in endless song
[00:06.50]Above earth's lamentations
[00:13.00]I hear the sweet though far off hymn
[00:19.38]That hails a new creation
[00:25.55]Through all the tumult and the strife
[00:32.19]I hear it's music ringing
[00:38.46]It finds an echo in my soul—
[00:45.42]How can I keep from singing?
[00:51.13]
[00:54.60]What though my joys and comforts die?
[01:00.97]The Lord my Savior liveth
[01:07.40]What though the darkness gather round!
[01:13.60]Songs in the night He giveth:
[01:19.70]No storm can shake my inmost calm
[01:26.44]While to that refuge clinging
[01:32.45]Since Christ is Lord of Heaven and earth
[01:39.85]How can I keep from singing?
[01:48.14]
[01:49.00]I lift mine eyes, the cloud grows thin
[01:55.45]I see the blue above it
[02:01.88]And day by day this pathway smoothes
[02:08.00]Since first I learned to love it
[02:14.20]The peace of Christ makes fresh my heart
[02:20.88]A fountain ever springing:
[02:27.21]All things are mine since I am His—
[02:34.15]How can I keep from singing?
[02:39.73]
[02:40.15]No storm can shake my inmost calm
[02:46.40]While to that refuge clinging
[02:52.40]Since Christ is Lord of Heaven and earth
[03:00.10]How can I keep from singing?
