Sweet Melody

WEET MELODY

Sweet melody from Heaven I hear
Sweet Jesus to me ever near
Filling my heart with His praise
Filling my life with His glory.

Sweet melody to Him I render
Not with singing but with total surrender
Of my will, emotions and heart
In exchange for His will, emotions and heart.

Sweet melody at His feet I offer
Not in talk but in everything
My being, my wealth and my existence
For Him to speak one Word to my spirit.

Sweet melody to Him offer
All ye who would His glory inherit
Not in cash but in suffering
To bring more men to sing sweet melody.
