How Can I Keep From Singing God's Praise?


Music often grants me words to adequately express my heart.  Below is a traditional song adapted by Chris Tomlin, Matt Redman, and Ed Cash that I have been singing these past few weeks. 

How Can I Keep From Singing
There is an endless song
Echoes in my soul
I hear the music ring

And though the storms may come
I am holding on
To the Rock I cling

How can I keep from singing Your praise
How can I ever say enough
How amazing is your love
How can I keep from shouting Your name
I know I am loved by the King
And it makes my heart want to sing

I will lift my eyes
In the darkest night
For I know my Savior lives

And I will walk with You
Knowing You’ll see me through
And sing the songs You give

How can I keep from singing Your praise
How can I ever say enough
How amazing is Your love
How can I keep from shouting Your name
I know I am loved by the King
And it makes my heart want to sing

I can sing in the troubled times
Sing when I win
I can sing when I lose my step
And fall down again
I can sing cause You pick me up
Sing ‘cause You hear me, Lord
When I call to You in prayer
I can sing with my last breath
Sing for I know
That I’ll sing with the angels
And the saints around the throne

How can I keep from singing Your praise
How can I ever say enough
How amazing is your love
How can I keep from shouting Your name
I know I am loved by the King
And it makes my heart want to sing

 
I hope that these lyrics encourage and strengthen your heart in your struggle.  If you don’t know the amazing love of the King (Jesus), I pray that you will experience it soon!

…because it makes my heart want to sing.   
 

Psalm 117
Praise the Lord, all you nations.  Praise him, all you people of the earth.  For he loves us with unfailing love; the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever.  Praise the Lord!
