My Heart Keeps Singing Hallelujah

 

"But I will sing of Your mighty strength and power; yes,
 I will sing aloud of Your mercy and loving-kindness in the morning;
   for You have been to me a defense, a fortress, and high tower
 and a refuge in the day of my distress.

Unto You, O my Strength, I will sing praises; for God 
is my Defense, my Fortress, and High Tower, the
 God Who shows me mercy and steadfast love."
(Psalm 59: 16-17)

O my life is filled with singing,

Since the Lord came in,

And redeemed my guilty soul

and Cancelled all my sin;

All the past is 'neath the blood

For I'm reconciled to God,

And my heart keeps singing,

Hallelujah!

Glory Hallelujah,

Let the angel anthem roll,

For the Lord came down

and ransomed my poor soul.

Oh, the love that set me free

Cast my sin to the sea!

Now I'm singing,

Glory, Hallelujah!

It is good to live with Jesus

Since He made me free;

For He fills my days

with peace and joyous victory;

All the burdens now are gone,

Never more am I alone,

So, my heart keeps singing

Hallelujah!

Glory Hallelujah,

Let the angel anthem roll,

For the Lord came down

and ransomed my poor soul.

Oh, the love that set me free

Cast my sin to the sea!

Now I'm singing,

Glory, Hallelujah!

As I walk and talk with Jesus

In the path of light,

I've a song of gladness

whether Day be dark or bright;

With the Savior ever near

I have nothing now to fear,

So, my heart keeps singing,

Hallelujah!

Glory Hallelujah,

Let the angel anthem roll,

For the Lord came down

and ransomed my poor soul.

Oh, the love that set me free

Cast my sin to the sea!

Now I'm singing,

Glory, Hallelujah!
