Be Still by Sue Towler Be Still and know that I am God What marvelous words they are But for the soul that yearns for Him He is near and yet so far So often in our busy lives We feel the need to pray For strength for peace for guidance To help us on our way. Life can be very lonely Even though we're not alone Especially if our partner Has before us been "called Home" Remembering the things we did The ways we showed we cared That mutual admiration And encouraging little word. Sometimes we feel frustrated And often shed a tear "If only" are the thoughts we have "If only they were here" Oh what a strength and joy it is To know that God is there And "If only" we will turn to Him He will listen to our prayer But it isn't always easy When spirits get so low We tend to think we are on our own God really doesn't know. or understand our feelings Self pity comes on in The Devil has a field day We must not let him win At times like this we are not alone God is with us all the way And "If only" we will let Him He will give us strength each day To overcome the emptiness We feel deep down inside To trust Him more, to lean on Him Let Jesus be our guide Be still and know that I am God Just set the time apart To spend with Him, in thought and prayer His peace will fill your heart. |
