In The Quiet

In the Quiet
The ticking of the clock fades, as the house grows quiet.
The world outside my door, and all its worries disappear…
There is calm, and peace here… here in this place
It is only my Lord and I in this moment…. A moment consecrated here
In the quiet he speaks to me…. I know he is near… so very near to me….
It is as if I can touch him, and feel his warm embrace…
My life, and hope are in his hands, and I feel no fear… no fear at all….
I long to stay here in this quiet place, to lean on him and draw new strength….
To hear his tender whisper so clear, I am here… I am here…
