Holy Rest

I walk through the woods, a quiet path
Your creation fills my heart, and my soul
Oh Lord, in nature, your beauty is found
your peace calms and makes me feel whole
The rippling waves on the lake soothe my mind
The breeze through the pines whispers soft
The birds sing their songs, and creation resounds.
A hymn of the earth chording off
Chorus
A song of peace flows soft and true,
Its melody a sweet embrace.
It carries hope through skies so blue,
And fills the world with grace.
A song of peace in quiet woods,
Its harmony drifts through the trees.
It dances where the still breeze stood,
A gentle tune that frees.
The crickets join in with their chorus of hope
Fireflies dance to their tune
A barn owl calls out unrequited, forlorn
Squirrels play under the moon
In the stillness I pause taking space to reflect
I feel free and unhurried by time
I touch the soft stem of a dew covered leaf
I say a prayer to quiet my mind
Chorus
A song of peace flows soft and true,
Its melody a sweet embrace.
It carries hope through skies so blue,
And fills the world with grace.
A song of peace in quiet woods,
Its harmony drifts through the trees.
It dances where the still breeze stood,
A gentle tune that frees.
This world that You made is a gift from above,
Your glory surrounds in the stillness I feel,
It speaks of Your mercy, it sings of Your love.
And draws in my heart to heal.
Your peace speaks softly without a word.
In Your creation, my soul finds its rest,
This quiet speaks Your grace to me.
In Your love, Lord, my heart is blessed.
In stillness, Lord, Your voice I hear,
Within Your care, I truly am blessed.
Your peaceful whispers draw me near,
And call me to Holy rest.
