Always Rejoicing (How Can I Keep from Singing?)
My life flows on in endless song; Above earth’s lamentation, I catch 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? What tho’ my joys and comforts die? The Lord my Saviour 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 Christ is Lord of heaven and earth, How can I keep from singing? I lift my 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 Christ makes fresh my heart, A fountain ever springing; All things are mine since I am his— How can I keep from singing? ~Words: Pauline T./Robert Lowry & Music: Robert Lowry
