About the Hymn
American poet John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892) adapted these stanzas from his longer poem “The Brewing of Soma.” In this edition the hymn is sung to C. Hubert H. Parry’s noble tune REPTON, whose flowing lines suit the text’s plea for stillness and trust. Often used after the sermon or during times of reflection, the hymn guides worshippers to seek God’s “still, small voice.” Its measured cadence and gentle petitions invite a deeper obedience and a renewed desire to walk in His peace.
