Be still, my soul-- thy best, thy heav’nly Friend Through thorny ways leads to a joyful end. 2 Be still, my soul-- thy God doth undertake To guide the future as He has the past; Thy hope, thy confidence let nothing shake-- All now mysterious shall be bright at last. Be still, my soul-- the waves and winds still know His voice who ruled them while He dwelt below. 3 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. Scripture: Psalm 46:10 Used With Tune: FINLANDIA
