Everything I once held dear / I count it all as lost
Lead me to the cross
Where Your love poured out
Bring me to my knees
Lord I lay me down
Rid me of myself
I belong to You
Oh Lead me, lead me to the cross
You were as I / Tempted and trialed / You were / The word became flesh / Bore my sin and death / Now you're risen / Everything I once held dear / I count it all as loss
"Quiet my soul"
It's like my soul wants to scream and shout. If only people could hear it and comfort it. How do I find the quiet my soul needs, like this song talks about? It's almost as if my soul quiets the louder I blast this tune. Ha. Psalm 131:2 says, "But I have stilled and quieted my soul; like a weaned child with its mother, like a weaned child is my soul within me."
It's hard to sit quiet. We long for noise and the business of the day, the silence sometimes intimidating. How can we hear the Lord if we never allow time for Him? How can he quiet our hearts and minds if we don't quiet the noise around us?
Life is hard. Let the Lord quiet your soul.
