Silent Worship

Fade away each wild emotion;
Every care and sorrow cease;
Breathing silent, calm devotion
Rest each soul in perfect peace.

Linked with Christ in tender union
All our hearts with love o'erflow,
Holding secret, sweet communion
Borne by angels to and fro.

Thus our souls may live forever
Drinking in eternal Truth,
Never more from bliss to sever,
Joyous in immortal youth.

Through the ages none can measure
Love shall wing our prayers and praise,
It shall be our dearest treasure
And the solace of our days.
