lyrics

Be still, my soul! the Lord is on your side;
bear patiently the cross of grief or pain:
leave to your God to order and provide;
In every change He faithful will remain.
Be still, my soul! your best, your heav’nly Friend
through thorny ways leads to a joyful end.

Be still, my soul! your God will undertake
to guide the future as He has past.
Your hope, your 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.

Be still, my soul! the hour is hastening 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.
