Quiet Time

Written by Elizabeth Thomas

EVERYBODY, EVERYWHERE

NO MATTER WHAT THEIR STATION

NEEDS TO FIND SOME QUIET TIME

FOR PEACEFUL CONTEMPLATION.

IT MAY BE IN THE MORNING

OR BEFORE WE GO TO BED

OR THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY DAY

WHEN WE NEED TO CLEAR OUR HEAD.

A TIME WHEN WE PUT TO ONE SIDE

ALL THE PROBLEMS OF THE DAY

TO FEEL THOSE MILLION TRILLION WORRIES

GENTLY MELT AWAY.

TO DEEPLY BREATHE THE BREATH OF GOD

TO NURTURE INNER SOUL,

FOR ONLY WITH HIS HEALING LOVE

CAN WE BE TRULY WHOLE.

AND WHEN WE’RE IN THIS QUIET TIME

FOR THOSE PROBLEMS HE’LL GIVE HOPE

AND FOR THOSE MILLION TRILLION WORRIES

HE’LL GIVE US STRENGTH TO COPE.

SO SET ASIDE SOME QUIET TIME

EACH AND EVERY DAY

AND FEEL THE SPIRIT OF OUR LORD

FLOW THROUGH YOU WHILE YOU PRAY.
