Verse 1:
5 5 -4 5 -5 5 5 -4 -3”
There’s within my heart a melody
-3 4 4 -4 6 -5 5 -5
Jesus whispers sweet and low,
3 5 -4 5 -5 5 5 -4 -3”
Fear not, I am with thee, peace, be still,
-3 6 -5 -3 5 -4 4
In all of life’s ebb and flow.
Chorus:
3 -3” -3 4 -5 -3
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,
6 -4 6 -4 5
Sweetest Name I know,
3 -3” -3 4 -4 -3”
Fills my every longing,
-3 6 -5 -3 5 -4 4
Keeps me singing as I go.
Verse 2:
All my life was wrecked by sin and strife,
Discord filled my heart with pain,
Jesus swept across the broken strings,
Stirred the slumb’ring chords again.
(chorus)
Verse 3:
Feasting on the riches of His grace,
Resting ’neath His shelt’ring wing,
Always looking on His smiling face,
That is why I shout and sing.
(Chorus)
Verse 4:
Though sometimes He leads
Through waters deep,
Trials fall across the way,
Though sometimes the path seems
Rough and steep,
See His footprints all the way.
(Chorus)
Verse 5:
Soon He’s coming back to welcome me,
Far beyond the starry sky;
I shall wing my flight to worlds unknown,
I shall reign with Him on high.
(Chorus)
