Lord I pray,
let my heart not forget,
You placed the stars in the sky
From chaos you made order
In my mind and soul you will do the same.
Lord, quiet my soul, still my heart
In time alone with you, I find peace
As the day speeds up, and life takes place
Let me not be consumed by the world’s chaos
Help me take pauses and seek your face
My Lord, my refuge, my rest, my strength
Quiet my soul, let me not forget
To surrender it all to you.
Lord, I surrender
A fresh page longing to be filled
Impulsivity wants to charge ahead
Read. Pray. Meditate.
Wait for God.
Too quickly I want to fix, repair, explain, solve.
Fussing and fretting in frustration.
Wait! Patience. Be still ¡Espera!
What would you have these lines say, my Lord?
Longing for understanding
Craving significance … validation… approval
Are you trying to please God or man?
Oh my soul, wait
Wait upon the Lord
Deep calls to deep
Flood my soul with your Spirit
Steady my mind
Fix it upon You alone
STOP swimming!
STOP fighting the waves
Be still
Feel your feet in the sand
Hear the waves rhythmically rolling in
See the clouds floating above, softly
Surrender
Be still
Quiet
And you shall hear My voice.
