My Soul in Silence Waits for God

Representative Text

1 My soul in silence waits for God,
My Savior He has proved;
He only is my rock and tower;
I never shall be moved.
My honor is secure with God,
My Savior He is known;
My refuge and my rock of strength
Are found in God alone.

2 For God has spoken o'er and o'er,
And unto me has shown,
That saving power and lasting strength
Belong to Him alone.
Yea, loving-kindness evermore
Belongs to Thee, O Lord;
And You according to his work
Dost every man reward.
