When I Hear Your Voice

 

I find myself in need of rest
As each day’s end draws near.
I want to close out the world’s voice,
And hear Yours in my ear.
 
The world seems fixed on many things
That could lead me astray,
But all I want is time with You
At the end of each day.
 
Although I’m insignificant,
You have work I can do,
And I rejoice each time I’m called
To do something for You.
 
Though time has slowed my step a bit,
When I’m put to the test,
I work with joy, then, gratefully,
I seek Your peace to rest.
 
My work is done for today and
My heart longs to rejoice
Within the quiet peace I find
When all I hear’s Your voice.
 
Matthew 13:16
But blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear.
