Jesus keeps my heart sing­ing all the day.
For Thy pro­mise is sure,
O what a fore­taste of glo­ry is mine
Hear, for Je­sus in­ter­cedes.
Come while you may, O, come to­day!
Alas, how great I saw my guilt
Whisper Thy will,
And are sing­ing Christ’s sto­ry anew;
I bow with con­trite heart,
From earth I would not flee;
Changes may come—I take, or I re­sign,
He’ll sure­ly let me go.
Every mo­ment seems so sweet,

While I

While I His dear name con­fess,
Lord, I yield ev­er­more,
Trusting, trust­ing,
Fill my soul with hum­ble awe
For Je­sus waits at Heav­en’s gate,
I thought of how Thy heart did throb,
While all is still.
To our bless­èd Re­deem­er,
I glad­ly take a part.
O lift me up to Thee!
Whate’er may change, in Him no change is seen,
And guide me through the day,
Only trust­ing in the Lord,
