YOU CAN HAVE A SONG IN YOUR HEART (c)1946 Key: F 4/4
Words: E L Slavens Music: Ira Stanphill

1. You can have a melody down in your heart,
When it's aching, almost breaking.
Even though the sorrow makes the teardrop start,
You can have a melody down in your heart.

Cho.
You can have a song in your heart in the night,
After every trial, after every mile.
Anyone can sing when the sun is shining bright,
But you need a song in your heart at night.

2. Do not let your worries drive your song away.
Though tomorrow brings its sorrow,
Just remember after nighttime comes the day;
Do not let your worries drive your song away.

3. Soon the night will pass and morning bring the day;
I am longing for its dawning.
Until then we'll labor here and watch and pray.
Soon the night will pass and morning bring the day.
