Author: Katharina von Schlegel, 1697-?; Jane L. Borthwick, 1813-1897 Hymnal: Revival Hymns and Choruses #346 (1970) First Line: Be still, my soul - the Lord is on thy side Lyrics: 1 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
Thru thorny ways leads to a joyful end.
2 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.
3 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.
