"all now mysterious shall be bright at last"

(Jesus is Laid in the Tomb, by Edward Arthur Fellowes Prynn)


Be still, my soul - the Lord is on thy side!

Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain;

Leave to thy God to order and provide

In ev'ry change he faithful will remain,

Be still, my soul - thy best, thy heav'nly friend

Through thorny ways leads to a joyful end.

Be still, my soul - thy God doth undertake

To guide the future as he has the past;

Thy hope, thy confidence let nothing shake

All now mysterious shall be bright at last.

Be still, my soul - the waves and winds still know

His voice who ruled them while he dwelt below.

Be still, my soul - the hour is hast'ning on

When we shall be forever with the Lord,

When disappointment, grief, and fear are gone,

Sorrow forgot, love's purest joys restored.

Be still, my soul - when change and tears are past,

All safe and blessed we shall meet at last.
