And all seem to go wrong; His presence is there For He gives me a song. When days are dreary And cold nights are long; When heart is breaking He gives me a song. When days are lonely And friends are all gone; He comforts and cheers me And gives me a song. When peace eludes me And dark fear reigns strong; He comes in the night And gives me a song. A stranger and a pilgrim Feeling lost and forlorn; He builds me a mansion And He gives me a song. When temptations come From the foe's evil throng; He assures me of vict'ry When He gives me a song. I've wandered away From my God and Home; His love wins me back When He gives me a song. Weeping endures for the night But real joy comes at morn; He fulfills this promise When He gives me a song. The gloom is dispelled My soul is adorned With glory and grace 'Cause He gives me a song. I exalt my Deliv'rer, My Rock, Salvation's horn; My heart rejoices For He gives me a song. Strains of heav'nly music Float down from the Throne; They accompany me in praise Of Him--the Giver of Songs.

Refrain He brought me out of the miry clay, He set my feet on the Rock to stay; He puts a song in my soul today, A song of praise, hallelujah! He placed me upon the strong Rock by His side, My steps were established and here I'll abide; No danger of falling while here I remain, But stand by His grace until the crown I gain. Refrain He brought me out of the miry clay, He set my feet on the Rock to stay; He puts a song in my soul today, A song of praise, hallelujah! He gave me a song, 'twas a new song of praise; By day and by night its sweet notes I will raise; My heart's overflowing, I'm happy and free. I'll praise my Redeemer, who has rescued me. Refrain He brought me out of the miry clay, He set my feet on the Rock to stay; He puts a song in my soul today, A song of praise, hallelujah! I'll sing of His wonderful mercy to me, I'll praise Him till all men His goodness shall see; I'll sing of salvation at home and abroad, Till many shall hear the truth and trust in God. Refrain He brought me out of the miry clay, He set my feet on the Rock to stay; He puts a song in my soul today, A song of praise, hallelujah! -- Words: Henry J. Zelley --Music: Henry L.
