Be Still My Soul | Kari Jobe | Lyrics

After watching a video of a 70-year-old woman who became a quadriplegic at the age of 17 ["Songs of Suffering"], I was reminded—once again—of just how blessed I am and have been all of my life; how small my problems are in comparison to so many others.

LYRICS - Be Still My Soul

Be still my soul, the Lord is on thy side
Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain
Leave to thy God, to order and provide
In every change, He faithful will remain

Be still my soul, thy best, thy heavenly friend
Through thorny ways, leads to a joyful end

Be still my soul, thy God doth undertake
To guide the future as He has the past
Thy hope, thy 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

In you I rest, in you I found my hope
In you I trust, You never let me go
I place my life within your hands alone
Be still my soul

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, loves purest joys restored

Be still my soul, when change and tears are past
All safe and blessed we shall meet at last

In you I rest, in you I found my hope
In you I trust, you never let me go
I place my life within your hands alone
Be still my soul

In you I rest, in you I found my hope
In you I trust, you never let me go
I place my life within your hands alone
Be still my soul,
Be still my soul,
Be still my soul
