Unheard the dews around me fall,
And heavenly influence shed ;
And silent on this earthly ball,
Celestial footsteps tread.
Night moves in silence round the pole,
The stars sing on unheard,
Their music pierces to the soul,
Yet borrows not a word.
Noiseless the morning flings its gold,
And still the evening's place ;
And silently the earth is rolled
Amidst the vast of space.
In quietude Thy Spirit grows
In man, from hour to hour ;
In calm eternal, onward flows
Thy all-redeeming power.
Lord, grant my soul to hear at length
Thy deep and silent voice ;
To work in stillness, wait in strength,
With calmness to rejoice.
