Come and find the quiet centre

Author: Shirley Erena Murray (b. 1931) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 12 hymnals Topics: The Church Celebrates Wholeness and Healing Lyrics: 1 Come and find the quiet centre in the crowded life we lead, find the room for hope to enter, find the frame where we are freed: clear the chaos and the clutter, clear our eyes, that we can see all the things that really matter, be at peace, and simply be. 2 Silence is a friend who claims us, cools the heat and slows the pace; God it is who speaks and names us, knows our being, touches base, making space within our thinking, lifting shades to show the sun, raising courage when we're shrinking, finding scope for faith begun. 3 In the Spirit let us travel, open to each other's pain; let our loves and fears unravel, celebrate the space we gain: there's a place for deepest dreaming, there's a time for heart to care; in the Spirit's lively scheming there is always room to spare!

O calm of hills above, where Jesus knelt to share with thee the silence of eternity, interpreted by love! Interpreted by love! 4 Drop thy still dews of quietness, till all our strivings cease; take from our souls the strain and stress, and let our ordered lives confess the beauty of thy peace, the beauty of thy peace. 5 Breathe through the heats of our desire thy coolness and thy balm; let sense be dumb, let flesh retire; speak through the earthquake, wind and fire, O still small voice of calm!
