My soul, be silent, wait upon the Lord

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. |

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. |

|
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. |

|
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. |

|
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. |

Beautiful and create a pause in your devotional life, to truly connect with God on His level in more ways than one.

What a beautiful hymn and tune.
The words of this hymn are so helpful in entering the right frame of mind and spirit for prayer. I had never heard it before, but have started to sing it before my personal time of prayer each day this week.
