Still, Still with Thee

Author: Harriet B. Stowe, 1812-1896 Appears in 367 hymnals Topics: Worship of God First Line: Still, still with Thee - when purple morning breaketh Lyrics: 1 Still, still with Thee - when purple morning breaketh, When the bird waketh and the shadows flee; Fairer than morning, lovelier than daylight, Dawns the sweet consciousness - I am with Thee! 2 Alone with Thee, amid the mystic shadows - The solemn hush of nature newly born; Alone with Thee in breathless adoration, In the calm dew and freshness of the morn! 3 Still, still with Thee - as to each newborn morning, A fresh and solemn splendor still is given, So does this blessed consciousness, awaking, Breathe each day nearness unto Thee and heav'n. 4 When sinks the soul, subdued by toil, to slumber, Its closing eye looks up to Thee in prayer; Sweet the repose beneath Tju wings o’ershading, But sweeter still to wake and find Thee there! 5 So shall it be at last, in that bright morning, When the soul waketh and life’s shadows flee; O in that hour, fairer than daylight dawning, Shall rise the glorious tho't - I am with Thee!

O with what joy they went away! 2 Once more 'tis eventide, and we Oppressed with various ills, draw near: What if thy form we cannot see; We know and feel that thou art here. 3 O Saviour Christ, our woes dispel: For some are sick, and some are sad, And some have never loved Thee well, And some have lost the love they had; 4 And none, O Lord, have perfect rest, For none are wholly free from sin; And they who fain would serve thee best Are conscious most of wrong within. 5 O Saviour Christ, thou too art man, Thou hast been troubled, tempted, tried; Thy kind but searching glance can scan The very wounds that shame would hide. 6 Thy touch has still its ancient pow'r; No word from thee can fruitless fall: Hear in this solemn evening hour, And in Thy mercy heal us all. Amen. Used With Tune: ANGELUS
