December 1                                                                                                                                                                        &n bsp;                                 “Be Still, My Soul”

                                                                                  “Be still and know that I am God. . .”

                                                                                                                                                                  &n bsp;                                                                       Psalm 46:10a

In the quietness of the early morning

He comes on angels’ wings

To whisper that He’s always near

Regardless of what the future may bring.

 

With tenderness He whispers

Of His steadfast Love for me—

A love that always holds me close to His heart

When the way ahead I cannot see.

 

Yes, in the stillness of the night-watches

He whispers, “Yes, My child, I truly care.

“I’ll never leave you nor forsake you,

But have promised to always be there.”

 

How easy it is to miss His Voice

In the hurry and scurry of life;

We’re “much to do about nothing”

And then wonder why we’re full of envy and strife.

 

“Be still, my soul—and listen—

For the Father’s whispering Voice;

Be still and hear His words of cheer

By making Him your only choice.”

 

Other voices will clamor for your hearing

To guide you along your way;

But, there’s only One Voice that matters—

So be still and hear what He has to say.

 

“Yes, be still, my soul—and listen”

To the Savior’s tender words;

In the quietness of the moment

They’re the sweetest we’ve ever heard.

 

To the weary, He offers renewed strength;

To the lonely, His Presence dear.

So, be still, dear Soul, and listen—

For Jesus, Your Savior, is very near.
