My life goes on in endless song, Above earth's lamentation,I hear the rail, though far off him, That hails a new creation.Through all the tumult and the strife, I hear its music ringing,It sounds an echo in my soul, How can I keep from singing?While though the tempest loudly roars, I hear the truth it liveth,And though the darkness round me close, Songs in the night it giveth,No storm can shake my innermost calm, While to that rock I'm clinging.Since love is Lord of heaven and earth, How can I keep from singing?My life goes on in endless song, Above earth's lamentation,I hear the rail, though far off him, That hails a new creation.No storm can shake my innermost calm, While to that rock I'm clinging.I hear an echo in my soul, How can I keep from singing?My life goes on in endless song, Above earth's lamentation,I hear the rail, though far off him, That hails a new creation.
