Rest, Listen, Rejoice

I love the peace of quiet days
When I have nothing planned
And I can simply rest knowing
I’m safe within Your hand.
 
I’ve lived long enough in the world,
To feel it weigh on me.
That’s why I treasure days of peace,
Though they’re rare as can be.
 
Those days that I can spend with You
Listening to Your voice,
Remembering Your loving grace,
Letting my heart rejoice.
 
I know that this time, too, will pass,
Life’s chaos will return,
But until then I’ll rest in You,
Be still, listen and learn.
 
Psalm 119:64
The earth is filled with your love, Lord; teach me your decrees.
