Be Still, My Soul
Author: Catharina A. D. von Schlegel; Jane Laurie Borthwick Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Appears in 177 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 131 First Line: Be still, my soul! for God is on your side Lyrics: 1 Be still, my soul! for God is on your side;
bear patiently the cross of grief or pain:
leave to your God to order and provide,
who through all changes faithful will remain.
Be still, my soul! your best, your heav’nly Friend
through thorny ways leads to a joyful end.
2 Be still, my soul! for God will undertake
to guide the future surely as the past.
Your hope, your confidence, let nothing shake;
all now mysterious shall be clear at last.
Be still, my soul! the waves and winds still know
the voice that calmed their fury long ago.
3 Be still, my soul! the hour is hastening on
when we shall be forever in God's peace;
when disappointment, grief, and fear are gone,
love’s joys restored, our strivings all shall cease.
Be still my soul! when change and tears are past,
all safe and blessed we shall meet at last. Topics: Patience; Comfort; Discipleship; Funeral / Memorial Service; God Faithfulness of; God Power of; Joy; Patience; Protection; Suffering Used With Tune: FINLANDIA Text Sources: Stille, mein Wille

Quiet, Lord, my froward heart
Author: Newton Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 248 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 131 Lyrics: 1 Quiet, Lord, my froward heart,
Make me teachable and mild;
Upright, simple, free from art,
Make me as a weaned child;
From distrust and envy free,
Please with all that pleases thee.
2 What thou shall to-day provide,
Let me as a child receive;
What to-morrow may betide,
Calmly to thy wisdom leave:
'Tis enough that thou wilt care;
Why should I the burden bear?
3 As a little child relies
On a care beyond his own,
Knows he's neither strong nor wise,
Fears to stir a step alone:
Let me thus with thee abide,
As my Father, Guard, and Guide. Topics: The Christian Life Humility and Watchfulness; Tranquillity
Quiet, Lord, my froward heart
Faith Begins by Letting Go
Author: Carl P. Daw Jr, b. 1944 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 131 Lyrics: 1 Faith begins by letting go,
giving up what had seemed sure,
taking risks and pressing on,
though the way feels less secure:
pilgrimage both right and odd,
trusting all our life to God.
2 Faith endures by holding on,
keeping memory’s roots alive
so that hope may bear its fruit;
promise fed, our souls will thrive,
not through merit we possess
but by God’s great faithfulness.
3 Faith matures by reaching out,
stretching minds, enlarging hearts,
sharing struggles, living prayer,
binding up the broken parts;
till we find the commonplace
ripe with witness to God’s grace. Topics: Discipleship; Trust in God; Unity and Fellowship Used With Tune: LUX PRIMA Text Sources: Prayer text: John Calvin, Institutes of the Christian Religion, III.2.7, and James 1:17

Lord, for ever at Thy side
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 111 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 131 Lyrics:
Lord, for ever at thy side
Let my place and portion be:
Strip me of the robe of pride,
Clothe me with humility.
Meekly may my soul receive,
All thy Spirit hath revealed;
Thou hast spoken; I believe,
Though the oracle be sealed.
Humble as a little child,
Weanèd from the mother's breast,
By no subtleties beguiled,
On thy faithful word I rest.
Israel now and evermore,
In the Lord Jehovah trust;
Him, in all his ways, adore,
Wise, and wonderful, and just.
Holy Father, Holy Son,
Holy Spirit, Three in One!
Glory, as of old, to thee,
Now and evermore shall be.
Amen.
