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 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: When dearest friends depart
And all is darkened in the vale of tears
Then shalt thou better know his love, his heart
Who comes to soothe thy sorrow and thy fears
Be still, my soul: Thy Jesus can repay
From his own fullness all he takes away

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 blessèd we shall meet at last
