How Can I Stop From Singing?

A dear friend created a beautiful newsletter: Appreciate the good things in life.

She shared her gratitude list and asked her readers:

What are you grateful for? I'd love to read your list.

Here is mine;

When I read my list again, I realized that I forgot to include something that brings me joy and happiness every single day.

They are just a few of my favorite posts, like the song "How can I stop from singing?"

The lyrics are deep;

The melody is heavenly;

Enya's voice is out of this world.

My life goes on in endless song Above earth's lamentations I hear the reel, though far-off hymn That hails a new creation.

Through all the tumult and the strife I hear its music ringing, It sounds an echo in my soul How can I keep from singing?

While though the tempest loudly roars I hear the truth, it liveth. And though the darkness 'round me close Songs in the night it giveth.

No storm can shake my inmost calm While to that rock I'm clinging Since love is lord of heaven and earth How can I keep from singing?

When tyrants tremble in their fear And hear their death knell ringing When friends rejoice both far and near How can I keep from singing?

In prison cell and dungeon vile Our thoughts to them are winging When friends by shame are undefiled How can I keep from singing?
