Tread Softly

Be silent, be silent,
A whisper is heard,
Be silent, and listen,
Oh, treasure each word.

[CHORUS]
Tread softly,(here) tread softly,(here)
The Master is here;
Tread softly,(here) tread softly, (here)
He bids us draw near.
Be silent, be silent,
For holy this place,
This alter that echoes,
The message of grace.
Be silent, be silent,
Breath humbly our prayer,
A foretaste of Eden,
This moment we share.

Be silent, be silent,
His mercy record;
Be silent, be silent,
And wait on the Lord.
