Words by Frances R. HavergalTune: R. H by Lowell MasonKey signature: F major (1 flat)Time signature: 2/2Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.Public Domain1. Master, speak! Thy servant heareth, Waiting for Thy gracious word, Longing for Thy voice that cheereth, Master, let it now be heard. I am list’ning, 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! tho' least and lowest, Let me not unheard depart; Master, speak! for oh, 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 ev’ry word. I am list’ning, Lord, for Thee: Master, speak, oh speak to me!
