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.

Learn to deny thy thought and all thy will.
Learn to let God anoint thee with Himself
And thru thy prayer His purposes fulfill.
Learn to deny thy thought and all thy will.
Learn to let God anoint thee with Himself
And thru thy prayer His purposes fulfill.

Till in the spirit thou with God art one,
Till thru the spirit God possesses all
And thus transforms each part unto His Son.

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.
