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.
