be still, my soul, be still - morten lauridsen lyrics

Loading...

be still, my soul, be still; the arms you bear are brittle
earth and high heaven are fixt of old and founded strong
think rather,– call to thought, if now you grieve a little
the days when we had rest, o soul, for they were long

men loved unkindness then, but lightless in the quarry
i slept and saw not; tears fell down, i did not mourn;
sweat ran and blood sprang out and i was never sorry:
then it was well with me, in days ere i was born

now, and i muse for why and never find the reason
i pace the earth, and drink the air, and feel the sun
be still, be still, my soul; it is but for a season:
let us endure an hour and see injustice done

ay, look: high heaven and earth ail from the prime foundation;
all thoughts to rive the heart are here, and all are vain:
horror and scorn and hate and fear and indignation–
oh why did i awake? when shall i sleep again?
