What tho’ He tarries long?
What tho’ the triumph song
Is still delayed?
Thou hast His promise sure,
And that is all secure;
Be not afraid! be not afraid!
Refrain:
Be still! be still!
Impatient heart.....be still!
My eager heart, be still!
Thy Lord will surely come,
And take thee to His home,
With Him to dwell;
It may not be today;
And yet, my soul, it may;
I can not tell, I can not tell.
Refrain:
Be still! be still!
My eager heart.....be still!
My anxious heart, be still!
Watch, work, and pray, and then
It will not matter when
Thy Lord shall come;
At midnight, or at noon;
He cannot come too soon
To take thee home, to take thee home.
Refrain:
Be still! be still!
My anxious heart.....be still!
Geo. A. Warburton
Need that Thou with me abide;
Need of Thee each day and hour,
As my guard and as my guide!
Jesus, I have need of Thee,
When my wayward feet would stray;
Need that, in Thy gentleness,
Thou shouldst keep them in the way!
Jesus, I have need of Thee,
In the time of doubt and fear;
Need to feel, whate’er may come,
That Thou wilt my spirit cheer!
Jesus, I have need of Thee,
And Thy precious promises;
Need of Thee to strengthen me,
For my strength but weakness is!
Jesus, I have need of Thee,
When my heart is sorely tried;
Need to feel Thy presence near,
Whatsoever be denied!
Chorus:
Need of Thee, need of Thee,
Jesus, I have need of Thee.
Need of Thee each day and hour,
Jesus, I have need of Thee!
E. R. Latta
