Honey Out of the Rock ‎#77

77. There's Music in My Soul!

1 The world is full of singing,
I hear it ev’rywhere;
The flow’rs their bells are ringing
Out on the scented air;
And up above, around me,
The silent anthems roll,
The glorious Lord has found me,
There’s music in my soul.

Refrain:
The blood of Christ is flowing,
Its waves around me roll;
My heart with love is glowing,
There’s music in my soul!

2 My heart was fond of sighing,
With just some breaks of song;
As self was ever trying
To make its weakness strong;
But now in Him confiding,
His Word has made me whole,
And e’er in Christ abiding,
There’s music in my soul! [Refrain]

3 My life was full of sadness,
Of over-weighting care,
But now the “oil of gladness”
Has turn’d to praise the prayer;
And so I keep pursuing,
And press t’wards the goal;
But praying, waiting, doing,
There’s music in my soul! [Refrain]

4 And so my heart keeps clinging
To the dear Master’s Word;
And it is always singing
Just like a springtime bird;
I know not what the harps be
When heavenly anthems roll;
I know that heav’n is near me,
There’s music in my soul! [Refrain]
