If you are caught up in turmoil and stress
And feel the tensions of life’s constant press,
Remember, still waters bring healing and rest,
Restoring us so we can meet every test.
The Lord knows your labors, and He has not changed.
The factors which push you can be rearranged.
The stillness He brings will heal and break through
All of the trials which come against you.
Remember His stillness, for He is your peace..
And there in that stillness you will find release.
As you look up, you’ll know He is there,
Answering your cries and every small prayer.
“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh
me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth
me beside the still waters...”
Psalm 23: 1-3 KJV
