Author: Jaroslav J. Vajda Meter: Irregular Appears in 29 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 18:19-27 First Line: Now the silence, now the peace Lyrics: Now the silence,
now the peace,
now the empty hands uplifted;
now the kneeling,
now the plea,
now the Father's arms in welcome;
now the hearing,
now the pow'r,
now the vessel brimmed for pouring;
now the body,
now the blood,
now the joyful celebration;
now the wedding,
now the songs,
now the heart forgiven leaping;
now the Spirit's visitation,
now the Son's epiphany,
now the Father's blessing.
