#439 How can I keep from singing

https://www.licensingonline.org/en-us/12/cluster/2571

1 My life flows on in endless song,
above earth’s lamentation.
I hear the real, though far-off hymn
that hails a new creation.

Refrain:
No storm can shake my in-most calm
while to that rock I’m clinging.
Since Love is Lord of heaven and earth,
how can I keep from singing?

2 Through all the tumult and the strife,
I hear that music ringing.
It sounds and echoes in my soul.
How can I keep from singing? [Refrain]

3 What though the tempest round me roar
I hear the truth it liveth.
What though the darkness round me close
Songs in the night it giveth. [Refrain]

4 The peace of Christ makes fresh my heart,
a fountain ever springing!
All things are mine since I am his!
How can I keep from singing? [Refrain]
