| 1 | My soul, be silent, wait upon the Lord! |
| | First let Him speak to thee, then speak to Him; |
| | True prayer in thee the Lord initiates, |
| | Thou but a channel art expressing Him. |
| 2 | My soul, be silent, wait upon the Lord! |
| | Learn to deny thy thought and all thy will. |
| | Learn to let God anoint thee with Himself |
| | And thru thy prayer His purposes fulfill. |
| 3 | My soul, be silent, wait upon the Lord! |
| | Silent to all thy wishes and thy plans, |
| | Silent to all thy earthly cares and calls, |
| | That God may work in thee all His demands. |
| 4 | My soul, be silent, wait upon the Lord! |
| | Yield to the spirit all thy heart and mind; |
| | Here let the spirit show what God reveals, |
| | Thee its obedient servant thus to find. |
| |
| 5 | My soul, be silent, wait upon the Lord! |
| | Learn thus to let the Spirit pray thru thee; |
| | All of thy being with the Spirit move, |
| | Thy prayer will thus God’s own expression be. |
| 6 | My soul, be silent, wait upon the Lord! |
| | Till in the spirit thou with God art one, |
| | Till thru the spirit God possesses all |
| | And thus transforms each part unto His Son. |
| 7 | My soul, be silent, wait upon the Lord! |
| | Till God may freely, fully flow thru thee, |
| | Till all thy words and actions hour by hour |
| | Are the fulfillment of God’s will thru thee. |
