How Can I Keep From Singing - Pete Seeger lyrics
My life flows on in endless song above earth's lamentation.
I hear the real, though far-off hymn that hails the new creation
Through all the tumult and the strife, I hear the music ringing;
It sounds an echo in my soul. How can I keep from singing?
What though the tempest ’round me roars, I know the truth, it liveth.
What though the darkness ’round me close, songs in the night it giveth.
No storm can shake my in-most calm while to that rock I'm clinging.
Since love is lord of heaven and earth, how can I keep from singing?
When tyrants tremble, sick with fear, and hear their death-knell ringing,
When friends rejoice both far and near, how can I keep from singing?
In prison cell and dungeon vile our thoughts to them are winging.
When friends by shame are undefiled, how can I keep from singing?
