L. B. Bridges

9.7.9.7.Ref.

THERE’S within my heart a melody,

Jesus whispers sweet and low,

Fear not, I am with Thee, peace, be still,

In all of life’s ebb and flow.

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus—

Sweetest name I know,

Fills my every longing,

Keeps me singing as I go.

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.

3

Feasting on the riches of His grace,

Resting ’neath His sheltering wing,

Always looking on His smiling face,

That is why I shout and sing.

4

Soon He’s coming back to welcome me

Far beyond the starry sky;

I shall wing my flight to worlds unknown,

I shall reign with Him on high.
