He Keeps Me Singing

Author: L.B.B. Hymnal: The New Church Hymnal #377 (1976) 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] Languages: English Tune Title: [There's within my heart a melody]

Peace! Wonderful peace Lyrics: 1 Far away in the depths of my spirit tonight Rolls a melody sweeter than psalm; In celestial-like strains it unceasingly falls O'er my soul like an infinite calm.

Wonderful peace, Coming down from the Father above; Sweep over my spirit forever, I pray, In fathomless billows of love. 2 What a treasure I have in this wonderful peace, Buried deep in the heart of my soul; So secure that no power can mine it away, While the years of eternity roll. [Refrain] 3 I am resting tonight in this wonderful peace, Resting sweetly in Jesus' control; For I'm kept from all danger by night and by day, And His glory is flooding my soul. [Refrain] 4 And I think when I rise to that City of peace, Where the Author of peace I shall see, That one strain of the song which the ransomed will sing, In that heavenly kingdom shall be: [Refrain] 5 Ah! soul, are you here without comfort or rest, Marching down the rough pathway of time? Make Jesus your friend ere the shadows grow dark; Oh, accept this sweet peace so sublime. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Far away in the depths of my spirit tonight]
