Worship and Service Hymnal ‎#382

382. Speak, Lord, in the Stillness

1 Speak, Lord, in the stillness
While I wait on Thee;
Hushed my heart to listen
In expectancy.

2 Speak, O blessed Master,
In this quiet hour;
Let me see Thy face, Lord,
Feel Thy touch of power.

3 For the words Thou speakest,
They are life indeed;
Living bread from heaven,
Now on my spirit feed!

4 All to Thee is yielded,
I am not my own;
Blissful, glad surrender,
I am Thine alone.

5 Speak, Thy servant heareth,
Be not silent, Lord;
Waits my soul upon Thee
For the quickening word.

6 Fill me with the knowledge
Of Thy glorious will;
All Thine own good pleasure
In Thy child fulfill.

Amen.
