Speak to My Soul

Speak to my soul

dear Je­sus

Speak now in ten­d’rest tone;

Whisper in lov­ing kind­ness

Thou art not left alone.

Open my heart to hear Thee

Quickly to hear Thy voice

Fill Thou my soul with prais­es

Let me in Thee re­joice.

Speak Thou in soft­est whis­pers

Whispers of love to me

Thou shalt be al­ways con­q’ror

Thou shalt be al­ways free.

Speak Thou to me each day

Lord

Always in ten­d’rest tone

Let me now hear Thy whis­per

Thou art not left alone.

Speak to Thy child­ren ev­er

Lead in the ho­ly way;

Fill them with joy and glad­ness

Teach them to watch and pray.

May they in con­se­cra­tion

Yield their whole lives to Thee

Hasten Thy com­ing king­dom

Till our dear Lord we see.

Speak now as in the old time

Thou didst re­veal Thy will;

Let me know all my du­ty

Let me Thy law ful­fill.

Lead me to glo­ri­fy Thee

Help me to show Thy praise

Gladly to do Thy bid­ding

Honor Thee all my days.
