Be Still and Know

To those who learn to listen for God's voiceAnd put no trust in man,To silence all the senses’ clamor—To be stillIn presence of His loving plan—There is a sure rewardIn peace and rest and happinessThe worldly wise can never know,Transcending all this world has ever thoughtOr that which wealth or fame or beauty ever bought.
