1 I’ve something in my heart that Jesus gave to me,
It makes me feel like singing glory all the day;
He found my captive soul and gave me liberty,
And now I feel like singing glory!

Chorus:
He makes the path grow brighter ev’ry passing day;
He makes the burden lighter all along the way;
His Word is my delight, His will I now obey,
And all the time I’m singing glory!

2 My Savior loosed my tongue that I might speak His praise;
Since then I have been singing glory all the day;
I love to tell the lost of Jesus and His ways,
And oh, it keeps me singing glory! [Chorus]

3 My Savior took my feet from out the miry clay;
Since then I have been singing glory all the day;
He placed them on the Rock that shall not pass away—
I cannot keep from singing glory! [Chorus]

4 O weary heart and sad, O heavy-laden soul,
If you would feel like singing glory all the day;
Just let the Savior in, and let Him take control;
Then you will feel like singing glory! [Chorus]
