Be Still

So many things in life can make us feel mad,

Gone is the stillness, and our soul is not glad!

Angry thoughts can fill our minds till we sin,

Our faith in the Lord can become very thin!

 

The soul must learn how to be still before God,

Let us cease from anger, before the holy Lord.

Let go of the anger that makes us lose control,

Instead, let us yield our spirit for God to hold.

 

Meditation is what we need to learn in life,

It will help us overcome stress and strife.

Let the mind be filled with the word of God,

Let us find that peace of mind in the Lord.

 

It is hard to be still but we must persevere,

The Lord will guide us; to Him, we are dear.

He wants us to know that we can trust Him fully,

There is no need for our spirit to become unruly.
