BE STILL, MY SOUL
1. Be still, my
soul! the Lord is on thy side;
Bear patiently the
cross of grief for pain;
Leave to thy God to
order and provide;
In every change He
faithful wil remain.
Be still, my soul!
thy best, thy heav'nly friend
Thro' thorny ways
leads to a joyful end.
2. Be still, my
soul! thy God doth undertake
To guide the future
as He has the past.
Thy hope, thy
confidence let nothing shake;
All now mysterious
shall be bright at last.
Be still, my soul!
the waves and winds still know
His voice who ruled
them while He dwelt below.
3. Be still, my
soul! the hour is hast'ning on
When we shall be
forever with the Lord,
When
disappointment, grief, and fear are gone,
Sorrow forgot,
love's purest joys restored.
Be still, my soul!
when change and tears are past,
All safe and
blessed we shall meet at last.
