Be Still, And Know

Author: B. B. Edmiaston Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: As we mortals rush about Refrain First Line: Be still, be still Lyrics: 1 As we mortals rush about, quiet thought we oft leave out, We're so busy, we think, we can not be still; But the Lord has plainly said, if by Him we would be led, To be still, and know that He is God. Refrain: Be still, be still, Yielded to the Father's chast'ning rod; Be still, be still, And know that He is God. 2 One hour given unto Him clears the sky that sin made dim; We are blind to right when centered on ourselves; To us comes the needed pow'r when we give to Him His hour, He will speak, we'll learn that He is God. [Refrain] 3 When we've learned how to be still, He makes known to us His will, And the load that presses hard He helps to bear; O then, let us draw aside, and awhile with Him abide-- He'll give strength, we'll know that He is God. [Refrain] Scripture: Psalm 46:10 Used With Tune: [As we mortals rush about]
