Author: Charles Wesley; Li Dong; Chan Hung-da; Khoo Cheng-hoot Hymnal: Global Praise 1 (Rev. ed.) #58 (2000) First Line: Still, for thy lovingkindness Lord (Koa wo Zhu shanliang yu ciai) Lyrics: 1 Still, for thy lovingkindness, Lord,
I in thy temple wait:
I look to find thee in thy Word,
or at thy table meet.
2 Here, in thine own appointed ways,
I wait to learn thy will;
silent I stand before thy face,
and hear thee say, "Be still!"
3 "Be still! and know that I am God,"
'tis all I live to know;
to feel the virtue of thy blood,
and spread its praise below.
4 I wait my vigor to renew,
thine image to retrieve:
the veil of outward things pass through,
and gasp in thee to live.
