| 1. Master, speak! Thy servant heareth,
Waiting for Thy gracious word,
Longing for Thy voice that cheereth;
Master, let it now be heard,
I am listening, Lord, for Thee;
What hast Thou to say to me?
2. Speak to me by name, O Master!
Let me know it is to me;
Speak, that I may follow faster,
With a step more firm and free,
Where the shepherd leads the flock
In the shadow of the rock.
3. Master, speak! Though least and lowest,
Let me not unheard depart;
Master, Speak! For O Thou knowest
All the yearning of my heart;
Knowest all its truest need;
Speak, and make me blest indeed.
4. Master, speak! And make me ready,
When Thy voice is truly heard,
With obedience glad and steady
Still to follow every word,
I am listening, Lord, for Thee;
Master, speak, O speak to me!
