This is a song I’m still working on. I have words and melody, but nothing really recorded yet. Hopefully, posting this here will encourage me to finally make some progress on it.
“Hush, Be Still” is a song that I wrote for a friend of mine while she was going through a time with a lot of anxiety. She mentioned one day that one of her favorite passages was, Ps.131:1-2 ” My heart is not proud, LORD, my eyes are not haughty; I do not concern myself with great matters or things too wonderful for me. But I have calmed and quieted myself, I am like a weaned child with its mother; like a weaned child I am content.” This song is based on that passage. The Lord speaks and the soul responds.
Hush, Be Still – by Heidi Kaether copyright 2011
Hush, be still. I am always here.
Peace, be still. Trust and do not fear.
Let the cares of the world all fade away.
Rest, My little one, in Me.
Take My thoughts in exchange for yours.
There’s no need for you to worry so.
Trust My heart, for you know I am in control.
Rest, My little one, in Me.
In silence, I will wait for You.
Let me dwell in the shelter of Your wings.
Lord, when my heart is overwhelmed,
You are the Rock to which I will cling.
Sleep, My child, in My arms tonight.
Cease to strive. This is not your fight.
Just believe that all will turn out right.
Rest, My little one, in Me.
Like a weaned child in her mother’s arms.
I have stilled and quieted my soul.
All those thoughts that are too hard for me,
Lord, I leave them in Your control.
Hush, be still. I am always here.
Peace, be still. Trust and do not fear.
Let the cares of the world all fade away.
Rest, My little one.
Hush, My little one.
Rest, My little one, in Me.
