ECHOES OF THE SILENT SHORE
Oh, echoes of the silent shore...
Reverberate serene delight
As soul is joyous all the more
To bask toward God’s caring flight.
I’m gripped midst streams of blessing flow
Oh, echoes of the silent shore...
Caress my heart, smiting pain’s woe
Whispering God’s love to the core.
Enabled indeed for faith soar
Grateful soul persists to prevail
Oh, echoes of the silent shore...
Keep shouting, “God’s grace* does not fail.”
With grateful praise of worship bliss
In quietude glow, I explore
Lingering still so I won’t miss...
Oh, echoes of the silent shore.
*2 Corinthians 12:9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
