When the storm is raging
And the heart is sad,
Listen for the whispers of Jesus;
Surely you will hear them,
And they’ll make you glad,
Listen for the whispers of Jesus.
Refrain
Listen! Listen!
Listen for the whispers of Jesus!
Surely you will hear them,
And they’ll make you glad,
Listen for the whispers of Jesus!
When beneath a burden
You are bending low,
Listen for the whispers of Jesus;
When your friends forsake you
And the sad tears flow,
Listen for the whispers of Jesus.
Refrain
When the night seems endless,
When for courage pressed,
Listen for the whispers of Jesus;
When the soul is weary
And you sigh for rest,
Listen for the whispers of Jesus.
Refrain
