I have a song that Jesus gave me,
It was sent from heav'n above;
There never was a sweeter melody, `tis a melody of love.
In my heart there rings a melody,
There rings a melody with heaven's harmony;
In my heart there rings a melody, there rings a melody of love.
I love the Christ who died on Calv'ry,
For He washed my sins away;
He put within my heart a melody, And I know it's there to stay.
In my heart there rings a melody,
There rings a melody with heaven's harmony;
In my heart there rings a melody, there rings a melody of love.
'Twill be my endless theme in glory, with the angels I will sing;
'Twill be a song with glorious harmony,
When the courts of heaven ring.
In my heart there rings a melody,
There rings a melody with heaven's harmony;
In my heart there rings a melody, there rings a melody of love.
In my heart there rings a melody,
There rings a melody with heaven's harmony;
In my heart there rings a melody, there rings a melody of love.
