Still For Thy Loving-Kindness, Lord,
I In Thy Temple Wait;
I Look To Find Thee In Thy Word,
Or At Thy Table Meet.
Here, In Thine Own Appointed Ways,
I Wait To Learn Thy Will;
Silent I Stand Before Thy Face,
And Hear Thee Say, “Be Still!”
“Be Still! And Know That I Am God!” –
‘Tis All I Live To Know;
To Feel The Virtue Of Thy Blood,
And Spread Its Praise Below.
I Wait My Vigour To Renew,
Thine Image To Retrieve,
The Veil Of Outward Things Pass Through,
And Gasp In Thee To Live.
I Work, And Own The Labour Vain,
And Thus From Works I Cease;
I Strive, And See My Fruitless Pain,
Till God Create My Peace.
Fruitless, Till Thou Thyself Impart,
Must All My Efforts Prove;
They Cannot Change A Sinful Heart;
They Cannot Purchase Love.
I Do The Thing Thy Laws Enjoin,
And Then The Strife Give O’er;
To Thee I Then The Whole Resign,
I Trust In Means No More.
I Trust In Him Who Stands Between
The Father’s Wrath And Me;
Jesu, Thou Great Eternal Mean,
I Look For All From Thee.
