Shut up and Be Still

 

(spoken) I’m a total ruin before you Lord..

 

Be silent before the Lord all mortal flesh and seek his face

For He has roused Himself  up from His Holy dwelling place

 

I’ll be as still as a stone in this quiet hour

Because  of your great and glorious power

 

Behold the Lord

Behold the Lord

Be still and know that He is God.

 

There came a mighty wind but the Lord was not within the wind

There came a  a mighty earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake

And then behold a mighty fire, but the Lord was not within the fire

 

But  I hear Him  in the sound of a gentle whisper

In the quietness of a humble heart

That reverently honors His power and majesty

In the peace only He may impart…

 

So stop the banter and the noise

Be still and know that God is God

There’s always reason to rejoice

But now it’s time to still your voice

There’s nothing to fear

In the silence it is clear…

 

Behold the Lord

Behold the Lord

Be still and know that He is God.

 

Shut up and be still

Shut up and be still

Shut up and be still

Shut up and be still

And know that He is God…
