Quiet, My Heart

Quiet, My Heart

Quiet, my heart; center, my thought;
Let trifling things be cleared away.
For, truly, truly, I've been brought
By GOD's power unto this day.

It is His strength that lets me move;
It is His Light that lets me see;
It is His springs of which I drink;
It is the LORD WHO cares for me.

It is His Love that bears me up;
HE is the Hope within my heart;
HE is the Way, the Truth, the Life;
Wondrous Peace doth he impart.

Be quiet, heart; center, my thought;
Let useless things be cleared away,
That this be held my highest cause - -
To render, unto GOD, true praise.

by mercies of GOD,
