My soul, be silent, wait upon the Lord! Silent to all thy wishes and thy plans, Silent to all thy earthly cares and calls, That God may work in thee all His demands. |

My soul, be silent, wait upon the Lord! Learn thus to let the Spirit pray thru thee; All of thy being with the Spirit move, Thy prayer will thus God's own expression be. |
