My pick for best song of 2015 is by Buddy Greene: How Can I Keep From Singing
[Verse 1]
My life flows on in endless song above earth’s lamentation
I hear the sweet, though far off hymn…that hails a new creation
[Chorus]
No storm can shake my inmost calm…while to that rock I’m clinging
Since Christ is Lord of heaven and earth, how can I keep from singing?
[Verse 2]
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?
[Chorus]
No storm can shake my inmost calm…while to that rock I’m clinging
Since Christ is Lord of heaven and earth, how can I keep from singing?
[Verse 3]
What though my joys and comforts die? I know my Savior liveth.
What though the darkness round me close, songs in the night He giveth
[Verse 4]
I lift my eyes, the cloud grows thin, I see the blue above it
And day by day this pathway smoothes, since first I learned to love it
[Chorus]
No storm can shake my inmost calm…while to that rock I’m clinging
Since Christ is Lord of heaven and earth, how can I keep from singing?
[Verse 5]
The peace of Christ makes fresh my heart, a fountain ever springing
All things are mine since I am His…how can I keep from singing?
[Chorus]
No storm can shake my inmost calm…while to that rock I’m clinging
Since Christ is Lord of heaven and earth, how can I keep from singing?
[Chorus]
No storm can shake my inmost calm…while to that rock I’m clinging
Since Christ is Lord of heaven and earth, how can I keep from singing?
