Being Still

I’m taking time out to be still,

To breathe in the dark night,
To wash my mind clear of the thoughts
Of what went wrong or right,
And set my focus back on You,
My truest source of light.
 
Even when all the world is dark
Your light is bright and clear.
I never have to wonder if
You’re close enough to hear,
For each time I call out to You
I find that You’re still near.
 
So, for tonight, I’m letting go
Of all that worries me,
Because I know that this world’s woes
Will one day cease to be
And I will find them meaningless
In Your eternity.
