“God bless you all! This song has a long history in the folk music world. My heart is singing it for you now:
My life flows on in endless song
Above earth’s lamentation.
I hear the real, though far off hymn
That hails a new creation.
Above the tumult and the strife,
I hear its music ringing;
It sounds an echo in my soul.
How can I keep from singing?”
