He Keeps Me Singing

There’s with­in my heart a me­lo­dy

Jesus whis­pers sweet and low

Fear not

I am with thee; peace

be still

In life’s con­stant ebb and flow.

Jesus

Je­sus

Je­sus

sweet­est name I know

Fills my ev­ery long­ing

keeps me sing­ing as I go.

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.

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.

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.

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.
