There's within my heart a melody,
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus;
Sweetest note in all the world to me,
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus.
I can sing it in the morning,
When the day is at its best;
I can sing it in the twilight,
When the sun has gone to rest.
I can sing it in the darkness,
When the night is black as sin;
It will make my heart rejoice,
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus.
I can sing it in the battle,
When the hosts of sin assail;
It will give me strength to conquer,
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus.
I can sing it in the triumph,
When the battle all is done;
It will make my heart o'erflow with praise,
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus.
Oh, how sweet the Name of Jesus,
It can make the darkness light;
It can make the rough ways smooth,
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus.
Precious Name, O how precious!
Hope of earth and joy of heaven;
Peace it gives and life eternal,
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus.
I can sing it in the morning,
When the day is at its best;
I can sing it in the twilight,
When the sun has gone to rest.
