13606. Oh, Speak To Me, My Savior

1 Oh, speak to me, my Savior,
Some words of holy cheer,
That I in joy or sorrow
May know that Thou art near;
O Lord, how condescending
To stoop and talk with me!
I know I am unworthy,
But hear my humble plea.

Refrain:
Oh, speak to me, my Savior,
I wait with listening ear;
Thy words, so full of comfort,
My soul delights to hear.

2 Oh, speak to me, my Savior,
And tell me of Thy grace—
Sufficient for Thy people,
For every time and place;
Oh, speak to me in trouble
Some consolations dear;
Be with me in the conflict,
And I shall feel no fear. [Refrain]

3 Oh, speak to me, my Savior,
I long to hear Thy voice,
For when I am despondent,
It makes my heart rejoice;
Thou lovest me, my Savior,
Thy love I feel—I know,
But oh, my soul is waiting
To hear Thee tell me so. [Refrain]
