I hear the real though far-off hymn That hails a new creation. Refrain: No storm can shake my inmost calm While to that rock I’m clinging. Since Love is Lord of heaven and earth, How can I keep from singing? 2 Through all the tumult and the strife, I hear that music ringing; It sounds and echoes in my soul; How can I keep from singing? [Refrain] 3 What though the tempest 'round me roar, I hear the truth it liveth. What though the darkness 'round me close, Songs in the night it giveth. [Refrain] 4 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? [Refrain] 5 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?
