When Pharaoh’s chariots thunder at our back,
And angry waves before us rise in might,
The heart cries out in terror, spirits quake,
No path revealed within the gathering night.
Yet Moses stands amid the people’s dread
And speaks the word that stills the frantic throng:
“The Lord Himself shall fight where we now tread;
Ye need but hold your peace, and wait, be strong.”
Be still, O soul, when tempests rage and roar,
When enemies draw near with fierce intent—
The battle belongs to the Lord forevermore;
His hand shall bring the promised end.
So cease thy striving, lay thy burden down:
In quiet trust, behold deliverance come.
