Poetry
Be Still
Beside roaring rivers,
Quiet waters flow.
After raging storm-works,
Silent rainbows glow.
Beyond night shadows,
Soothing sunbursts gleam.
Out of rocky pathways,
Shining step-stones beam.
It is God who calms
The angry sea
And makes the promise,
“I am with thee.”
It is God who gives
Light to set us free
And makes of callous paths
An open lea.
Sh-h-h . . . Be still . . .
And Know that
God is God!
