He Keeps Me Singing

Verse 1
There’s with­in my heart a me­lo­dy (Eph. 5:19, Col. 3:16)
Jesus whis­pers sweet and low, (Song of Solomon 2:14)
Fear not, I am with thee; peace, be still, (Isa. 41:10, Isa. 43:5, Mark 4:39)
In life’s con­stant ebb and flow.

Chorus
Jesus, Je­sus, Je­sus,
Sweet­est name I know, (Song of Solomon 1:3)
Fills my ev­ery long­ing, (Ps. 107:9)
Keeps me sing­ing as I go.

Verse 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.

Verse 3
Feasting on the rich­es of His grace, (Eph. 1:7, Eph. 2:7)
Resting ’neath His shel­ter­ing wing, (Ps. 61:4, Ruth 2:12, Ps. 17:8, Ps. 36:7, Ps. 57:1, Ps. 63:7, Ps. 91:4)
Always look­ing on His smil­ing face,
That is why I shout and sing.

Verse 4
Though some­times He leads through wa­ters deep, (Isa. 43:2, Ps. 77:19)
Trials fall across the way,
Though some­times the path seems rough and steep,
See His foot­prints all the way. (I Pet. 2:21)

Verse 5
Soon He’s com­ing back to wel­come me, (John 14:3. I Thess. 4:16-17)
Far be­yond the star­ry sky;
I shall wing my flight to worlds un­known,
I shall reign with Him on high. (II Tim. 2:12, Rev. 3:21, Rev. 20:6, Rev. 22:5)
