1 

Speak, Lord, in the stillness,

   While I wait on Thee;

Hushed my heart to listen,

   In expectancy.

 2 

Speak, O blessed Master,

   In this quiet hour;

Let me see Thy face, Lord,

   Feel Thy touch of power.

 3 

For the words Thou speakest,

   They are life indeed;

Living bread from heaven,

   Now my spirit feed!

 4 

All to Thee is yielded,

   I am not my own;

Blissful, glad surrender,

   I am Thine alone.

 5 

Speak, Thy servant heareth,

   Be not silent, Lord;

Waits my soul upon Thee

   For the quickening word.

 6 

Fill me with the knowledge

   Of Thy glorious will;

All Thine own good pleasure

   In Thy child fulfill.

 7 

Like a watered garden,

   Full of fragrance rare,

Lingering in Thy presence,

   Let my life appear.
