Be Still, My Soul
Psalm 46:10
Author:
Katharina von Schlegel, 1697-


Be still, my soul: the Lord is on thy side;
Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain;
Leave to thy God to order and provide;
In ev'ry change He faithful will remain.
Be still, my soul: thy best, thy heav'nly Friend
Thro' thorny ways leads to a joyful end.

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.

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.

Oh thank you dear Lady. I think I am going to have my family sing this tonight together.

"He FAITHFUL will REMAIN"..........

Be still, my soul: the Lord is on thy side; Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain;

That's one of my favorite hymns. Thanks!
