Revival Hymns ‎#129

129. God sets a still, small voice

1 God sets a still, small voice
Deep every soul within;
It guideth to the right,
And warneth us of sin.

2 If we that voice obey,
Clearer its tones will be
Till all God’s will for us
Clear as noonday we see.

3 If we that voice neglect,
Fainter will be its tone;
If still unheeded, it
Will leave us quite alone.

4 O grief, to be allowed
To go our own wild way;
Lord, hold Thy children back
Lest we so sadly stray!

5 And help us to attend
To Thy sweet voice divine;
Then, in the judgment day,
Own us, good Lord, as Thine.
