The Quiet

Sitting in the solitude
The noise finally cut off
The trials of the week subdued
The pain in the heart eased
The moment we've longed for
Alone in the quiet

Times like these are rare
In a world of so much chaos
A chance to sit quietly
To reflect, to pray, to relax
To take the time we need
To enjoy the quiet

We rush so much with activities
So much to do, so little time
Life seems to shout at us
Louder and louder
So we turn off the noise
We find rest in the quiet

God whispers to us
At these special moments
Too often we tune Him out
Too often we don't make time
He has so much to say
When we allow Him in the quiet

So we pray, we talk, we share
We let Him comfort us
Instead of calling out to Him
Only in times of our need
We just sit and listen
In the peacefulness of the quiet

"Why worry when we can pray
Trust Jesus, He'll be our stay"
A hymn of old and truth
He wraps His arms around us
Giving hope, and strength, and love
When we share our time with Him, in the quiet
