K. Von Schlegel; J. L. Borthwick, Tr. (141/413) -- Hymns and Spiritual Songs

K. Von Schlegel; J. L. Borthwick, Tr. 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 ever change He faithful will remain. Be still my soul: thy best, thy heavenly Friend Through 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 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.
