Author: G. Massey Hymnal: Christ in Song #325 (1908) First Line: There lives a voice within me Refrain First Line: This world is full of beauty Lyrics: 1 There lives a voice within me,
Guest angel of my heart,
Whose whisp'rings strive to win me
To act a noble part.
Up evermore it springeth
Like some sweet melody.
And evermore it singeth
This song of songs to me:
Chorus:
This world is full of beauty,
That points the soul above,
And if we did our duty,
It might be full of love.
2 The leaf tongues of the forest,
The flower lips of the sod,
The birds that hymn their raptures
Up to the throne of God;
The summer wind that bringeth
Joy over land and sea.
Have each a voice that singeth
This song of songs to me: [Chorus]
3 O voice of God most tender,
O voice of God divine,
Still be my heart's defender
Till ev'ry tho't is Thine;
My soul in gladness bringeth
Its songs of praise to Thee,
While all around me singeth
This song of songs to me: [Chorus]
