Jesus set my soul a-singing when he came to me one day; when he saw my sing and sorrow he wiped all my tears away. He forgave me all my sinning, lifted all my heavy load; Jesus set my soul a-singing when we met on Calvary's road. Jesus sets my soul a-singing walking now beside me here; when I follow where he leads me, what can cause my heart to fear? He's the one who plans my pathway, guides and keeps me in his care; Jesus sets my soul a-singing for he makes his dwelling there. Jesus set my soul a-singing with a song that knows no end-- how can I exhaust the mercies of a God who calls me friend? He's the Song and I'm the singer as he lives his life in me: Jesus set my soul a-singing now and through eternity!
