Be Still, My Soul! for God Is Near!

Author: William D. MacLagan Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 12 hymnals First Line: Be still, my soul! for God is near Lyrics: 1. Be still, my soul! for God is near! The great High Priest is with thee now; The Lord of life Himself is near, Before whose face the angels bow. 2. To make thy heart His lowly throne Thy Savior God in love draws nigh; He gives Himself unto His own, For whom He once came down to die. 3. He pleads before the mercy-seat; He pleads with God, He pleads for thee; He gives thee bread from Heav’n to eat, His flesh and blood in mystery. 4. I come, O Lord! for Thou dost call— To blend my pleading prayer with Thine; To Thee I give myself—my all, And feed on Thee and make Thee mine.
