- Be still, my soul; the Lord is on thy side;
 - Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain;
 - PLeave to thy God to order and provide;
 - In every change He faithful will remain.
 - Be still, my soul; thy best, thy heavenly, Friend
 - Through thorny ways leads to a joyful end.
 - 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.
 - Be still, my soul, though dearest friends depart
 - And all is darkened in the vale of tears;
 - Then shalt thou better know His love, His heart,
 - Who comes to soothe thy sorrows and thy fears.
 - Be still, my soul; thy Jesus can repay
 - From His own fulness all He takes away.
 - Be still, my soul; the hour is hastening 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.
