From the June 13, 1987 "final broadcast" of A Prairie Home Companion. Lovely rendition of a beautiful song. Also in STEREO at • How Can I Keep from Si...

RIP, Jean Redpath. I will always sing this and think of you. You've enriched our lives by keeping early Scottish folk music alive. Your voice always stops me dead in my tracks...such warmth, humanity and loveliness. You are missed, Dear Jean.

I have always loved this lady's voice and am saddened to only learn now that she has passed on. Jean Redpath helped to rediscover music of Scotland, lost at home but preserved across the Atlantic. What a labour of love and what infectious enthusiasm she displayed, a warm and vital personality which was evident in her beautiful singing voi.

OH How I wish I had found this great Scottish Folk Singer earlier in my life --I first heard Jean sing on A Prairie Home Companion some time in the mid to late 1980's and have been a follower of her since that time --What a loss to the World of Great Scottish Music

I belonged to an amateur Scottish dance performance group in Boston called The New Caledonians. Every January we had the privilege of working along side Jean Redpath (and Robert J Lurtsema of WGBH) at Harvard's Sanders Theatre for a full on Burns Night celebration. Glorious. And what a nice human being.

Was in North Wales when I heard dear Jean had passed. So many beautiful songs in these vales too. And my heart is in Alba tonight. And so many thanks to Jean for your heartful songs.

Thank you for posting this. I think it is one of the most mocing hymns ever written, second only, perhaps to Amazing Grace.

My life goes on in endless song Above earth's lamentations, I hear the real, though far-off hymn That hails a new creation. Through all the tumult and the strife I hear it's music ringing, It sounds an echo in my soul. How can I keep from singing? While though the tempest loudly roars, I hear the truth, it liveth. And though the darkness 'round me close, Songs in the night it giveth. No storm can shake my inmost calm, While to that rock I'm clinging. Since love is lord of heaven and earth How can I keep from singing? When tyrants tremble in their fear And hear their death knell ringing, When friends rejoice both far and near How can I keep from singing? In prison cell and dungeon vile Our thoughts to them are winging, When friends by shame are undefiled How can I keep from singing?
