My life flows on in endless song;

               Am     G
Above earth's lamentation,

           C/E                  F
I hear the sweet, tho' far-off hymn

             Am     C
That hails a new creation;

              Am               F 
Thro' all the tumult and the strife

            C      Em
I hear the music ringing;

            Am          F
It finds an echo in my soul

           Am         C
How can I keep from singing?

The Lord my Saviour liveth;

               C/E             F
What tho' the darkness gather round?

             Am        C
Songs in the night he giveth.

               Am             F 
No storm can shake my inmost calm

                C      Em
While to that refuge clinging;

                 Am                 F
Since Christ is Lord of heaven and earth,

I see the blue above it;

           C/E               F
And day by day this pathway smooths,

               Am         C
Since first I learned to love it;

               Am                   F 
The peace of Christ makes fresh my heart,

            C      Em
A fountain ever springing;

All things are mine since I am his?

How can I keep from singing?
