The Cyber Hymnal ‎#3284

3284. Jesus Set the Music Ringing

1. You ask what makes me happy the whole day long,
Why I am always singing a gladsome song;
Ah, well I do remember when song began to start,
’Twas Jesus set the music ringing in my heart.

Refrain
In my heart, He set the music ringing,
In my life a heav’nly gladness bringing;
Ah, well do I remember when song began to start,
’Twas Jesus set the music ringing, ringing in my heart.

2. I cannot keep from singing since that glad day,
When Jesus took, in mercy, my sins away;
He opened up a fountain whence streams of gladness start,
’Twas Jesus set the music ringing in my heart. [Refrain]

3. His love each day is growing more sweet to me,
Each day new grace and beauty in Him I see;
For all this world can offer from Him I would not part,
Since He has set the music ringing in my heart. [Refrain]
