30. Keep the Music Ringing

1 Keep the music ringing,
In the trusting heart,
Close to Jesus clinging,
Praise will ne’er depart.
Chiming with life’s story,
Silver tones of peace,
To our Savior’s glory,
Let them never cease.

Refrain:
Keep the music ringing all the way,
Serve the Lord with gladness ev’ry day,
Keep the music ringing,
Keep the music ringing,
Keep the music ringing, all the way.

2 Keep the music ringing,
Let the joy-notes flow
Like a fountain springing,
Lit with heavenly glow.
Sing his love constraining,
As you pass along
Till his knowledge gaining,
Others learn your song. [Refrain]

3 Keep the music ringing,
Let it gladness bear,
Consolation bringing
In a world of care.
Sing of help availing
In the thickest fight,
Sing of grace, unfailing
In the darkest night. [Refrain]

4 Keep the music ringing,
In the house of God;
Worship him with singing,
Tell his love abroad!
In his holy dwelling,
In the courts above,
O what strains are swelling,
Raptured hymns of love. [Refrain]
