Be Still My Soul

Be still, my soul: the Lord is on your side; bear patiently the cross of grief or pain;
leave to your God to order and provide; in ev’ry change he faithful will remain.
Be still, my soul: your best, your heav’nly friend through thorny ways leads to a joyful end.

Be still, my soul: your God will undertake to guide the future as he has the past.
Your hope, your 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: when dearest friends depart, and all is darkened in the vale of tears,
then shall you better know his love, his heart, who comes to soothe your sorrow and your fears.
Be still, my soul: your Jesus can repay from his own fullness all he takes away.

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.

Phase Dance – Pat Metheny

Be Still – The Fray (sung by Emily Wadhams)

Be still and know that I’m with you, be still and know that I am here
Be still and know that I’m with you, be still, be still, and know

When darkness comes upon you and colors you with fear and shame
Be still and know that I’m with you and I will say your name

If terror falls upon your bed and sleep no longer comes
Remember all the words I said: be still, be still, and know

And when you go through the valley and the shadow comes down from the hill
If morning never comes to be, be still, be still, be still

If you forget the way to go and lose where you came from
If no one is standing beside you, be still and know I am
Be still and know that I’m with you, be still and know I am

If Thou but Trust in God to Guide Thee
If thou but trust in God to guide thee, with hopeful heart through all thy ways,
God will give strength, whate’er betide thee, and bear thee through the evil days.
Who trusts in God’s unchanging love builds on the rock that nought can move.

Only be still, and wait God’s leisure in cheerful hope, with heart content
to take whate’er thy Keeper’s pleasure and all-discerning love hath sent;
No doubt our inmost wants are clear to One who holds us always dear.

Sing, pray, and keep God’s ways unswerving; so do your own part faithfully,
and trust God’s word; though undeserving, you‘ll find God’s promise true to be.
God never will forsake in need the soul that trusts in God indeed.

You Have Searched Me, Lord, and Known, Me

You have searched me, Lord, and known me! All my life is in your care.
When I lie awake in evening, You are always with me there.
When I rise to greet the morning in an attitude of praise,
What I learn from you is humbling: You already know my ways.

Lord, you know the song I’m singing and my words before I pray.
You’re behind me and before me as I travel through each day.
You once knit me all together; You created me by grace.
In your eyes, you see and love me as you treasure all my days.

Lord, I try to learn your wisdom, but I cannot understand.
Yet your love is all around me; I am part of all you’ve planned.
Let me sing your praise each morning, let me serve you all day through,
And in evening, make me peaceful, knowing this: I’m loved by you!
