Be still my soul. The Lord is on your side Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain Leave to thy God to order and provide In every change He faithful will remain Be still my soul. Thy best, thy heavenly, Friend Through 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 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.
