Author: L.B.B. Appears in 205 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Contentment and Peace First Line: There's within my heart a melody Refrain First Line: Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Sweetest name I know Lyrics: 1 There's within my heart a melody,
Jesus whispers sweet and low;
"Fear not, I am with thee, peace, be still,
In all of life's ebb and flow.”
Refrain:
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,
Sweetest name I know,
Fills my ev'ry longing,
Keeps me singing as I go.
2 All my life was wrecked by sin and strife,
Discord filled my heart with pain,
Jesus swept across the broken strings,
Stirred the slumbering chords again. [Refrain]
3 Feasting on the riches of His grace,
Resting 'neath His sheltering wing,
Always looking on His smiling face,
That is why I shout and sing. [Refrain]
4 Though sometimes He leads through waters deep,
Trials fall across the way,
Though sometimes the path seems rough and steep,
See His footprints all the way: [Refrain]
5 Soon He's coming back to welcome me
Far beyond the starry sky;
I shall wing my flight to worlds unknown,
I shall reign with Him on high. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [There's within my heart a melody]
He Keeps Me Singing
