“How Can I Keep From Singing”
This widely performed hymn emerged from nineteenth-century American Protestant hymnody. Its text first appeared in 1868 as “Always Rejoicing,” attributed to the otherwise unidentified “Pauline T.” Its enduring theme is Christian confidence amid worldly turmoil: circumstances may change, but faith sustains an “endless song.” Later, when covered folk singers and troubadours, the hymn acquired an audience far beyond its original setting.
