• Blest are the saints, O God,
• That stay themselves on thee!
• Who wait for thy salvation, Lord,
• Shall thy salvation see.

3

• When we in darkness walk,
• Nor feel the heavenly flame,
• Then is the time to trust our God,
• And rest upon his name.

4

• Soon shall our doubts and fears
• Subside at his control
• His loving-kindness shall break through
• The midnight of the soul.

5

• Wait till the shadows flee
• Wait thy appointed hour
• Wait till the Bridegroom of thy soul
• Reveals his love with power.
• Augustus Montague Toplady (1740-78)
