Quiet Times

When my life is busy and I have so much to do,
Remind me, Lord, that there's always time for you.

For what business could I possibly need to direct and control,
More than submitting to you the business of my soul.

Alive to your grace and mercy, each day is a brand new start;
Giving up the old and living with Jesus in my heart.

And when I slip and fall again, as I surely will,
Your hand will be there to catch me and remind me to "Be Still!"

"Know that I am God," you whisper, "I am enough for you,"
"Come, walk and talk with me...I'll show you what is true."

The things of this world may dazzle, glitter, and impress,
But following their ways will only lead me to distress.

Taste & see and you will find there's nothing more satisfying,
than the sacrifice given in the body and blood of your king.

So teach me your ways, Lord, and show me which path to go,
For by your love my soul is saved and it's you I want to know!
