My Life Flows On
Author: Robert Lowry Hymnal: Voices United #716 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Peace (Inner, Calmness, Serenity First Line: My life flows on in endless song Lyrics: 1 My life flows on in endless song;
above earth’s lamentation,
I hear the sweet, though far off hymn
that hails a new creation.
Through all the tumult and the strife,
I hear the music ringing:
It finds an echo in my soul --
how can I keep from singing?
2 What though my joys and comforts die?
My Saviour still is living.
What though the shadowss gather round?
A new song Christ is giving.
No storm can shake my inmost calm
while to that Rock I'm clinging:
since Love commands both heaven and earth,
how can I keep from singing?
3 When tyrants tremble, sick with fear,
and hear their death knells ringing:
when friends rejoice both far and near,
how can I keep from singing?
In prison cell and dungeon vile
our thoughts to them are winging:
when friends by shame are undefiled,
how can I keep from singing?
4 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 Christ's --
how can I keep from singing? Languages: English Tune Title: HOW CAN I KEEP FROM SINGING
