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? Used With Tune: HOW CAN I KEEP FROM SINGING
