Be still, my soul; thy God doth undertake | :Be still, my soul; the Lord is on thy side; | ||
To guide the future as He has the past. | :Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain; | ||
Thy hope, thy confidence, let nothing shake; | :PLeave to thy God to order and provide; | ||
All now mysterious shall be bright at last. | :In every change He faithful will remain. | ||
Be still, my soul; the waves and winds still know | :Be still, my soul; thy best, thy heavenly, Friend | ||
His voice who ruled them while He dwelt below. | :Through thorny ways leads to a joyful end. | ||

:Be still, my soul; when change and tears are past, | |||
:All safe and blessed we shall meet at last. | |||
