Speak Lord, in Thy Stillness

Verse 1

SPEAK, Lord, inn Thy stillness,

While I wait on Thee;
Hushed my heart to listen
In expectancy

Verse 2

Speak, O blessed Master,

In this quiet hour,

Let me see Thy face, Lord,

Feel Thy touch of Power.

Verse 3

For the words Thy speakest,

“They are life indeed,;”

Living bread from heaven,

Now my spirit feed!

Verse 4

Satiate my being,

With Thy fulness fill;

As the dew descending,

Let thy speech distil.

Verse 5

All to Thee is yielded,

I am not mine own;

Blissful, glad surrender,

I am Thine alone.

Verse 6

Speak, Thy servant heareth;

Be not silent, Lord!

Waits my soul upon Thee

For the quickening word.

Verse 7

Fill me with the knowledge

Of Thy glorious will;

All Thine own good pleasure

In Thy Child fulfil.

Verse 8

Like a watered garden,

Full of fragrance rare,

Lingering in Thy presence,

Let my life appear.
