Author: Prof. P. A. Chadbourne Hymnal: The Finest of the Wheat No. 2 #26 (1894) First Line: In the silent hours of darkness Refrain First Line: Oh, for grace to listen to Him Lyrics: 1 In the silent hours of darkness,
When the world is hushed and still,
Comes the Savior, gently knocking,
Till His locks the dewdrops fill.
Refrain:
Oh, for grace to listen to Him,
Oh, for room within my heart;
Oh, for love to bid Him enter,
Enter never to depart.
2 Listen, O my soul, with wonder,
That the Savior comes to thee,
Ever knocking, ever waiting,
Waiting what thy will shall be. [Refrain]
3 Come and enter, precious Savior,
Come, dear Father, with the Son,
Come, Thou ever loving Spirit,
Come, Thou Holy Three in One. [Refrain] Tune Title: [In the silent hours of darkness]
The Waiting Savior
