Wait with me, for just one hour... But we can’t spare a minute In our manic world Fear of silence has imprisoned us In our world of frenzy We must move or feel we’re lost And so we have...lost You Draw us back to you, Creator of Time Let us, in transitory stillness, know You Break us loose, from our chains of busyness And console us, in our confusion Still our chaotic minds for just one moment So that we can let in Your light For time moves faster than light And we cannot so slow down...for fear reigns People trample on people; the stampede is on Hurtling us towards a disaster we cannot prevent Rushing, head-long, into nothingness And yet, believing that it is all You are All! All Good, All Holy, All Perfect! Perfect us, make us good Heal us, so that it is You who deserves our all – All our effort, our time, our busyness, our stillness, and our silence Lost in Your wonderful love and joyful peace. J.
