PREVAIL [blog]

dear restless heart, be stil; don’t fret and worry so; God has a thousand ways His love to show; just trust, and trust, and trust, until His will you know.

dear restless heart, be still, for peace is God’s own smile, His love can every wrong and sorrow reconcile; just love, and love, and love, and calmly wait a while.

dear restless heart, be brave, don’t moan and sorrow so, He hath a meaning kind in chilly winds that blow; just hope, and hope, and hope until you braver grow.

dear restless heart repose upon His breast this hour, His grace is strength and life, His love is bloom and flower; just rest, and rest, and rest within His tender power.

dear restless heart, be still! don’t struggle to be free; God’s own life is in Your life, from Him you may not flee; just pray, and pray, and pray till you have faith to see.
