Sit still, He said.

Sit still, He says, In the middle of the storm… Sit still, He says, With the ocean raging on… Sit still, He says – Close by my side, For there you will find shelter, And strength like never before. An air of calm around him, Stronger than the waves, Oh! How I wish it would engulf me too, And calm the storm within. But the uncertainties of my life, Pull me to and fro. And all the while, my Saviour whispers, Sit still, My child, By my side. Can I trust him with my tomorrow, And every other day. All my hopes and sorrows, At his feet, can I lay?! He promises goodness and mercy, All along my way, But Father, Can I let go, And let You be in control!? What If I take back the reins, When the going gets tough!? What If I fail you, And bring disgrace to your name!? Will you stay by my side, Even when I don’t measure up?! Will you stay by my side, Especially when I don’t measure up!? Cause, Father, In my eyes, I already don’t measure up. With eyes that ooze kindness, He looks straight into my soul, and says – That’s why my dear, I beseech you, Sit still, By my side. Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” Psalms 46:10 NIV https://my.bible.com/bible/111/PSA.46.10.NIV I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world. John 16:33 https://my.bible.com/bible/111/JHN.16.33
