How Can I Keep From Singing Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]My life flows on in [G]endless song;
[D]Above earth's lam[Bm]enta t[D]ion[A],[D]
I hear the sweet, though [G]far-off hymn
hymn
[D]That hails a new creation

[Verse 2]
[D]
Through all the tumult [G]and the strife,
I [D]hear that mu[Bm]sic [A]ringing
It [D]finds an echo [G]in my [D]soul
How can I [A]keep [D]from singing?

[Verse 3]
[D]
What though my joys and [G]comforts die?
I [D]know my [Bm]Savior [A]liveth
What [D]though the darkness
[G]gather round?
Song[D]s in the [A]night he [D]giveth

[Verse 4]
No [D]storm can shake my [G]inmost calm
While [D]to that [Bm]refuge [A]clinging
Since [D]Christ is Lord of
[G]heaven and [D]earth
How can I [A]keep [D]from singing?

[Verse 5]
[D]
I lift my eyes, the [G]cloud grows thin
I [D]see the [G]blue [A]above it
And [D]day by day this [G]pathway smooths,
[D]Since first I learned to love it,

[Verse 6]
The [D]peace of Christ makes
[G]fresh my heart
[D]A fountain [G]ever [A]springing
[D]For all things are mine
[G]since I [D]am his
How can I [A]keep [D]from singing?

[Verse 7]
No [D]storm can shake [G]my inmost calm
While [D]to [G]that refuge [A]clinging
Since [D]Christ is Lord of
[G]heaven [D]and earth
How can I [A]keep [D]from singing?
