479   Tread Softly




[1]
Be silent be silent
A whisper is heard;
Be silent and listen
Oh treasure each word.

[C]
Tread softly tread softly
The Master is here;
Tread softly tread softly
He bids us draw near.

[2]
Be silent be silent
For holy this place
This altar that echoes
The message of grace.

[C]
Tread softly tread softly
The Master is here;
Tread softly tread softly
He bids us draw near.

[3]
Be silent be silent
Breathe humbly our prayer;
A foretaste of Eden
This moment we share.

[C]
Tread softly tread softly
The Master is here;
Tread softly tread softly
He bids us draw near.

[4]
Be silent be silent
His mercy record;
Be silent be silent
And wait on the Lord.

[C]
Tread softly tread softly
The Master is here;
Tread softly tread softly
He bids us draw near.
