1 Speak, Lord, in the stillness,
speak your word to me;
help me now to listen
in expectancy.
2 Speak, O gracious Master,
in this quiet hour;
let me see your face, Lord,
feel your touch of power.
3 For the words you give me,
they are life indeed;
living Bread from heaven,
now on my spirit feed.
4 Speak, your servant listens--
I await your word;
let me know your presence,
let your voice be heart!
5 Fill me with the knowledge
of your glorious will;
all your own good pleasure
in my life fulfill.
