Be calm my soul, faint not with care
Though burdens deep our hearts would tear
He is the Lord, all He commands
He holdeth me safe in His hands.
Be calm my soul, melt not in fear
Though shadows dark press in so near
Yet in despair I see His light
Lead me, O Lord with wond'rous sight.
Be calm my soul, rest in Him sure
No wave of doubt His words endure
My longing soul is satisfied
He now leads forth, my Strength and my Guide.
