147. My Song

1 Within my heart a song
Is ringing all day long;
It fills
And thrills,
Gives joy for ills,
And ev’ry clam’ring stills;
Its never-changing theme
Is sweeter than a dream;
It rings
And clings,
And sweetly sings
Of Christ the King of kings.

Refrain:
Joy, joy, joy, shout the glad refrain,
Oh, sing the glad story old
Until all the world is told;
Tell, tell, tell of the Lamb once slain,
For all who receive it,
All who believe it,
Life everlasting shall gain.

2 Its cadences are sweet,
And softly they repeat
His name,
Who came
That He might claim
A world from sin and shame.
I sing it o’er and o’er,
And love it more and more;
Each tho’t
Is fraught
With love that bought,
And my salvation wrought. [Refrain]

3 Till time and tide shall cease,
That song of love and peace
Shall ring
And sing,
And gladness bring
To me of Christ, my King;
Then when with yonder throng
I join the new, new song,
For me
‘Twill be,
By His decree,
My song eternally. [Refrain]
