Quiet Me

Father, quiet me with your love,
Wrap me in your protective arms
Let me be still in your presence.

Let the sobs diminish,
Let the tears be wiped away,
Let me see into your eyes of tenderness.

Sing your song over me,
As a child troubled in the night,
Let the darkness be dispelled.

Let my head rest on your shoulder,
And be comforted by your warmth,
Hear my cry, "Daddy."

Lift me up and I will be still,
Hold me close and I will be comforted,
Quiet me with your love.

Character

Jesus,
I know the most important thing,
is not my comfort,
is not my career,
But my character.

Test me that I may be proven.
Protect me that I may not fall.
Keep me from the pit of destruction.

Prove me.
Let the fire come.
Burn the dross away.

May all who see - rejoice.
May all who watch - glorify You.
May all who wonder - be convinced.
