My heart can sing when I pause to remember

by Stuart Hamblen

Representative text

As printed in The Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal (1985), no. 632.

Verse 1

My heart can sing when I pause to remember A heartache here is but a stepping stone Along a trail that’s winding always upward, This troubled world is not my final home.

Refrain

But until then my heart will go on singing, Until then with joy I’ll carry on Until the day my eyes behold the city, Until the day God calls me home.

Verse 2

The things of earth will dim and lose their value If we recall they’re borrowed for a while; And things of earth that cause the heart to tremble, Remembered there will only bring a smile.
