What Is This?

“What is This?”  A classic by brothers Edwin and Walter Hawkins

What is this
That I feel deep inside
And it keeps setting my soul on fire
Whatever it is it won’t let me hold my peace

What is this
Makes folk say I’m acting strange
What is this
Makes me wanna run on in Jesus’ name
Whatever it is it won’t let me hold my peace

It makes me love all my enemies
And it makes me love my friends
And it won’t let me be ashamed
To tell the world I’ve been born again

What is this
Makes me do right when I would do wrong
What is this
When I’m down low He gives me a song
Whatever it is
It won’t let me hold my peace

Whatever it is
This feeling I have
Whatever it is
Deep down inside of me
Whatever it is
It won’t let me hold my peace

What is This?
