"In My Heart There Rings A Melody"

I've been humming this hymn all day. It struck me that no matter how crummy I might feel sometimes, or how bad the day is going, or for that matter, how great things are, there should always be a melody in my heart. I do have a song from Jesus, and a melody of love.

IN MY HEART THERE RINGS A MELODY
1. I have a song that Jesus gave me, It was sent from heaven above;
There never was a sweeter melody, 'Tis a melody of love.

CHORUS:
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!

2. 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.

3. '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.
