Speaking from the Stillness – v3

Speaking from the stillness
a Voice calling to us
the stillness having substance
not the absence of sound
but a shape to the Silence

A voice speaking
calling to us
from the stillness
from the silence
a peace that surrounds us

Feeding us with His Spirit
calling us to rise
as His children
from our study, from silence,
and be about our work

Yet calling us too
into His presence
Sabbath in our hearts
times to be quiet
all of our days

Being still, calm in our selves
leaning on Him for the strength we need
trusting in our Shepherd
as long as we live
following where He has led
