Times of stillness

Times of Stillness

When the rush of o’ertakes me ,
and my soul for quiet seeks ,
When my mind is full of pressures
That pursue me through the week ,
I have a little haven
Where I find my hearts content ,
And the quiet that surrounds me there
is truly heaven sent.

For we need times of stiffness ;
To relax and just unwind ,
And let go of small resentments
That clutter up our minds .
So I seek the soothing quiet ,
To my haven , safe I trod ,
And alone there in the silence ,
I feel very close to God !
