116. I Know 'Tis the Voice

1 I know ‘tis the voice of my Savior that whispers,
Be not afraid; be not afraid;
I know on the arm of his infinite mercy
My hope is stayed, my hope is stayed.

Refrain:
I know he is able to keep
Whate’er I commit to his care;
I know that when trials are many and deep
He answers my pray’r.

2 I know ‘tis the voice of my Savior that whispers,
Peace, be still, peace, be still;
And thus I have learned to be calm and submissive,
Lost in his will, lost in his will. [Refrain]

3 I know ‘tis the voice of my Savior that whispers
Softly to me, softly to me,
The way may be dark, but my grace is sufficient
Ever for thee, ever for thee. [Refrain]

4 I know ‘tis the voice of my Savior that whispers,
Home draweth night, home draweth nigh;
I know I shall find in his kingdom of glory
Rest by and by, rest by and by. [Refrain]
