through thorny ways leads to a joyful end.
2 Be still, my soul; your God will undertake
to guide the future as he has the past;
your hope, your 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.
3 Be still, my soul; the hour is hastening 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.

as nothing else can do.

to tell the old, old story
of Jesus and his love.

more wonderfully sweet.
I love to tell the story,
for some have never heard
the message of salvation
from God’s own Holy Word. [Refrain]

for those who know it best
seem hungering and thirsting
to hear it, like the rest.
And when in scenes of glory
I sing the new, new song,
'twill be the old, old story
that I have loved so long. [Refrain]
