Be still, my soul: for God is on your side. Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain. Trust in your God, your savior and your guide Who through all changes faithful will remain. Be still, my soul: your best, your heavenly friend Through thorny waves leads to a peaceful land. Be still, my soul: for God will undertake To guide the future surely as the past Your hope, your confidence let nothing shake All now mysterious shall be bright at last. Be still, my soul: the waves and wind shall know The voice that calmed them in this world will roar Be still, my soul: the hour is hastening on When we shall dwell with God for evermore 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.
