16452. In Life's Quiet Hours

1 Often while in me­di­ta­tion
On His love so free,
Comes mes­sage from my Fa­ther
Spoken just to me.

Refrain:
In life’s qui­et hours I find Him
Waiting for my call,
It is there He meets me, greets me,
Holds me lest I fall.

2 Or it may be I have strug­gled
Thro’ some tri­al sore;
When my strug­gling turns to trust­ing,
Lo, the tri­al is o’er. [Refrain]

3 Or per­chance while I am wait­ing
Still on bend­ed knee,
Comes a qui­et re­ve­la­tion
Of His love for me. [Refrain]

4 At my work or in my clo­set—
Almost any­where,
If in qui­et­ness I list­en
I find Je­sus there. [Refrain]
