Be Still

The wind is blowing,
rocks are crashing,
yet the Lord is not there.

The earth is quaking,
boulders are shaking,
yet the Lord is not there.

The fire is raging,
smoke is billowing,
yet the Lord is not there.

Out of the turmoil
after the conflict
quietly comes the voice of the Lord.

"I am still God.
I still control the earth;
I still control the nations.

Even through the storms,
even through the wars,
I am still God.

"Be still. Know Me.
I am with you.
I know you. I still have use for you.

"Be still. Follow Me.
I, the Lord over all,
Am working out My perfect plan."
