Be still, my soul; the waves and winds still know His voice who ruled them while He dwelt below. 3 Be still, my soul, though dearest friends depart And all is darkened in the vale of tears; Then you will better know His love, His heart, Who comes to soothe your sorrows and your fears. Be still, my soul; your Jesus can repay From His own fulness all He takes away. 4 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. Used With Tune: FINLANDIA
