About this Hymn
This beautiful setting draws from Habakkuk 2:20, calling worshipers to quiet reverence before God. In times of lament, when answers seem distant and hearts are heavy, we are invited to bring our burdens before the Lord and wait on his sovereign hand. This hymn's melody evokes a sense of awe and stillness, drawing us into a posture of worship and trust. The hymn works particularly well as a call to worship.
Lyrics
Verse 1
The Lord is in his holy temple; let all the earth keep silence. The Lord is in his holy temple; let all the earth keep silence. Keep silence, silence, silence before him; keep silence, silence, silence before him.
The Lord is in his holy temple; let all the earth keep silence. The Lord is in his holy temple; let all the earth keep silence. Keep silence, silence, silence before him; keep silence, silence, silence before him.
