Something Within

Verse 1

Preachers and teachers would make their appeal, Fighting as soldiers on great battlefields; When to their pleadings my poor heart did yield, All I can say, there is something within.

Chorus

Something within me that holdeth the reins, Something within me that banishes pain; Something within me I cannot explain, All that I know there is something within.

Verse 2

Have you that something, that burning desire? Have you that something, that never doth tire? Oh, if you have it- that Heavenly Fire! Then let the world know there is something within.

Verse 3

I met God one morn', my soul feeling bad, Heart heavy laden with a bowed down head. He lifted my burden, made me so glad, All that I know there is something within.
