6. Lord, Speak to Me (Verse 1)
The Lily of the Valley
TFWS
2062
I have found a friend in Jesus,
he’s everything to me,
he’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul;
The Lily of the Valley,
in him alone I see all I need to cleanse and make me fully whole.

7. In sorrow he’s my comfort,
in trouble he’s my stay,
he tells me every care
on him to roll.

8. He’s the Lily of the Valley, the bright and Morning Star,
he’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.

9. Lord, Speak to Me (Verse 1)
He all my grief has taken,
and all my sorrows borne;
in temptation he’s my strong and mighty tower;
I have all for him forsaken, and all my idols torn from my heart,
and now he keeps me by his power

10. Though all the world forsake me, and Satan tempts me sore,
through Jesus I shall safely reach the goal.

11. He’s the Lily of the Valley, the bright and Morning Star,
he’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.

12. Lord, Speak to Me (Verse 1)
He will never, never leave me,
nor yet forsake me here,
while I live by faith and do his blessed will;
a wall of fire about me, I’ve nothing now to fear,
With his manna he my hungry soul shall fill.

13. Then sweeping up to glory, where rivers of delight shall ever roll.
To see his blessed face,
where rivers of delight shall ever roll.

14. He’s the Lily of the Valley, the bright and Morning Star,
he’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.

35 On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let us go across to the other side.” 36 And leaving the crowd behind, they took him with them in the boat, just as he was. Other boats were with him. 37 A great windstorm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that the boat was already being swamped. 38 But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke him up and said to him, “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?”
