Yes; Thou hearkenest to our voices, Children’s voices though they be; Take the glory each rejoices, Lord of all, to render Thee. 2 Cherubs praise Thee, God the Savior, In sublimest strains above; Wilt Thou grant to us Thy favor, And accept of children’s love? Yes; Thou listenest to our singing, Children’s singing though it be; Take the hearts we all are bringing, Sovereign Son, to Thee, to Thee. 3 Angels praise Thee, God the Spirit, Source of life and light and truth; Wilt Thou, for the Savior’s merit, Hear the simpler songs of youth? Thou receiv’st our adoration, Children’s homage though it be; Make our hearts a new creation, Holy Spirit, fit for Thee. 4 Triune God, the heavens hail Thee, Harpers, choirs, and white robed throng, Nor shall children’s voices fail Thee In the universal song. Now receive our highest praises, Children’s praises though they be; Then to bliss at last upraise us, Triune God, to worship Thee. Used With Tune: ISCHGL

(Maestro, se encrespan las aguas) Refrain First Line: The winds and the waves shall obey thy will (Los vientos, las ondas oirán tu voz) Lyrics: 1 Master, the tempest is raging! The billows are tossing high! The sky is o'ershadowed with blackness, No shelter or help is nigh; Carest thou not that we perish?" How canst thou lie asleep, When each moment so madly is threat'ning A grave in the angry deep? Refrain: The winds and the waves shall obey thy will. "Peace, be still!" Whether the wrath of the storm-tossed sea, Or struggles or evil, whatever it be, No water can swallow the ship where lies the Master of ocean and earth and skies: They all shall sweetly obey thy will. "Peace, be still! Peace, be still!" They all shall sweetly obey thy will. "Peace, peace, be still!" 2 Master, with anguish of spirit I bow in my grief today; The depths of my sad heart are troubled, Oh, waken and save, I pray; Torrents of sin and of anguish Sweep o’er my sinking soul! And I perish! I perish, dear Master: Oh, hasten and take control. [Refrain] 3 Master, the terror is over, The elements sweetly rest; Earth’s sun in the calm lake is mirrored, And heaven’s within my breast. Linger, O blessed Redeemer, Leave me alone no more; And with joy I shall make the blest harbor, And rest on the blissful shore. [Refrain] --- 1 ¡Maestro, se encrespan las aguas, y ruge la tempestad! Los grandes abismos del cielo se llenan de obscuridad. ¿No ves que aquí perecemos? ¿Puedes dormir así, cuando el mar agitado nos abre profundo sepulcro aquí? Estribillo: Los vientos, las ondas oirán tu voz, "¡Sea la paz!" Calmas las iras del negro mar, las luchas del alma las haces cesar, y así la barquilla do va el Señor hundirse no puede en el mar traidor. Doquier se cumple tu voluntad, "¡Sea la paz! ¡Sea la paz!" Tu voz resuena en la inmensidad, "¡Sea la paz!" 2 Maestro, mi ser angustiado te busca con ansiedad; de mi alma en los antros profundos se libra cruel tempestad. Asalta el pecado a torrentes sobre mi frágil ser. ¡Y perezco, perezco, Maestro! ¡Oh, quiéreme socorrer! [Estribillo] 3 Maestro, pasó la tormenta, los vientos no rugen ya, y sobre el cristal de las aguas el sol resplandecerá. Maestro, prolonga esta calma, no me abandones más; cruzaré los abismos contigo, gozando bendita paz.
