D A/C# Bm Dear Lord and Father of mankind, Em9 Em2 Em Em7 A Asus2 A D/F# Forgive our foo--lish ways! G+ Gmaj7 G6 G++ A A9 A6 Re-clothe us in our rightful mind, A Bm Em9 Em A Asus4 A In purer lives thy service find, A7 D A/C# Am In deeper reverence praise Em Asus4 A D In deeper reve--rence praise. In simple trust like theirs who heard, Beside the Syrian sea, The gracious calling of the Lord, Let us, like them, without a word Rise up and follow thee, Rise up and follow thee O Sabbath rest by Galilee! O calm of hills above, Where Jesus knelt to share with thee The silence of eternity, Interpreted by love, Interpreted by love! Drop thy still dews of quietness, Till all our strivings cease; Take from our souls the strain and stress, And let our ordered lives confess The beauty of thy peace, Em Asus4 A Bb Bb/G The beauty of thy peace Breathe through the heats of our desire Thy coolness and thy balm; Let sense be dumb, let flesh retire; Speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire, O still small voice of calm, O still small voice of calm!
