Be still, O restless heart, be still;
O yield all sense of hurt and woe.
Lay down your burden of self-will;
"Be still, and know."
Surrender pride with all its fear,
Our own false sense of self, the foe;
Give up your sad, self-pitying tear.
"Be still, and know."
God, great I AM, Infinity,
To selfless thought His power will show
In quiet of humility.
"Be still, and know."
Know that in Him we live and move;
This Life doth ever restful flow.
Know that the only Life is Love.
"Be still, and know."
