Be Still My Soul lyrics

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 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; the waves and winds shall 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
