Be Still, My Soul, by Jean Sibelius (Finlandia), Kenon D. Renfrow, piano 

Be Still, My Soul (Finlandia), words by Katharina A. von Schlegel, music by Jean Sibelius
Verse 1
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 ev’ry change He faithful will remain.
Be still my soul! thy best, thy heav’nly Friend
Through thorny ways leads to a joyful end.
Verse 2
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.
Verse 3
Be still my soul! when dearest friends depart;
And all is darkened in the vale of tears.
Then shalt thou better know His love, His heart;
Who comes to soothe thy sorrow and thy fears.
Be still my soul! thy Jesus can repay
From His own fullness all He takes away.
Verse 4
Be still my soul! the hour is hast'ning on
When we shall be forever with the Lord.
When disappointment, grief, and fear are gone,
Sorrow forgot, love's purest joys restored.
Be still my soul! when change and tears are past,
All safe and blessed we shall meet at last.
