1 Keep on singing, sweetly singing,
Sing in sorrow’s darkest night;
Keep on singing till the morning
Comes with floods of golden light.
Refrain:
Keep on singing, however dark the day;
Music ringing will bring a brighter ray;
Keep on singing and sadness will not stay;
Keep on singing, work and pray.
2 Keep on singing, sweetly singing,
Let the echoes sweep along;
For thy words may reach some other,
Who shall need a cheering song. [Refrain]
3 Keep on singing, gladly singing,
Whatsoe’er thy lot may be;
Strive to banish care and sadness
With thy song’s sweet melody. [Refrain]
4 Keep on singing, bravely singing,
Tho’ defeated, weary, sad;
Joy ‘twill bring to those who listen,
It will make thine own heart glad. [Refrain]
