My life goes on in endless song |
| [00:18.32] |
above earth’s lamentations, |
| [00:25.38] |
I hear the real, though far-off hymn |
| [00:33.04] |
that hails a new creation. |
| [00:41.54] |
Through all the tumult and the strife |
| [00:48.41] |
I hear it’s music ringing, |
| [00:54.56] |
It sounds an echo in my soul. |
| [01:03.10] |
How can I keep from singing? |
| [01:12.23] |
While though the tempest loudly roars, |
| [01:19.62] |
I hear the truth, it liveth. |
| [01:26.43] |
And though the darkness ’round me close, |
| [01:32.77] |
songs in the night it giveth. |
| [01:39.71] |
No storm can shake my inmost calm, |
| [01:46.57] |
while to that rock I’m clinging. |
| [01:53.26] |
Since love is lord of heaven and earth |
| [02:01.59] |
how can I keep from singing? |

When tyrants tremble in their fear |
| [02:36.88] |
and hear their death knell ringing, |
| [02:44.14] |
when friends rejoice both far and near |
| [02:51.85] |
how can I keep from singing? |
| [02:59.23] |
In prison cell and dungeon vile |
| [03:06.32] |
our thoughts to them are winging, |
| [03:12.62] |
when friends by shame are undefiled |
| [03:20.81] |
how can I keep from singing? |
