Speak to my soul, dear Je­sus,
Speak now in ten­d’rest tone;
Whisper in lov­ing kind­ness,
Thou art not left alone.
Open my heart to hear Thee,
Quickly to hear Thy voice,
Fill Thou my soul with prais­es,
Let me in Thee re­joice.

Refrain

Speak Thou in soft­est whis­pers
Whispers of love to me,
Thou shalt be al­ways con­q’ror,
Thou shalt be al­ways free.
Speak Thou to me each day, Lord,
Always in ten­d’rest tone,
Let me now hear Thy whis­per,
Thou art not left alone.

Speak to Thy child­ren ev­er,
Lead in the ho­ly way;
Fill them with joy and glad­ness,
Teach them to watch and pray.
May they in con­se­cra­tion
Yield their whole lives to Thee,
Hasten Thy com­ing king­dom,
Till our dear Lord we see.

Refrain

Speak now as in the old time
Thou didst re­veal Thy will;
Let me know all my du­ty,
Let me Thy law ful­fill.
Lead me to glo­ri­fy Thee,
Help me to show Thy praise,
Gladly to do Thy bid­ding,
Honor Thee all my days.
