I hear Thy voice, within the silence speaking;
Above earth�s din it rises, calm and clear;
Whatever goal my wayward will is seeking,
Its whispered message tells me Thou art near.
When evil reigns, life�s
darker depths revealing,
And all the good seem sadly marred by wrong,
Amidst the discord, like sweet music stealing,
Thy voice, abiding, fills my soul with song.
O living voice, within the silence calling,
My spirit answers, wheresoe�er I roam;
Through life�s brief day still keep my feet from falling,
And lead me, through the evening shadows, home.
