Author: L. B. Bridgers Hymnal: Victory Songs #16 (1920) Topics: Petition and Prayer 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.
Chorus:
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 slumb'ring chords again. [Chorus]
3 Feasting on the riches of His grace,
Resting 'neath His shelt'ring wing,
Always looking on His smiling face,
That is why I shout and sing. [Chorus]
4 Tho' sometimes He leads thro' waters deep,
Trials fall across the way,
Tho' sometimes the path seems rough and steep,
See His footprints all the way. [Chorus]
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. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [There's within my heart a melody]
He Keeps Me Singing.
