Write Away...: Still

Località: West Linn, Oregon, United States

"Perhaps it would be better not to be a writer, but if you must, then write. If it all feels hopeless, if that famous 'inspiration' will not come, write. If you are a genius, you'll make your own rules, but if not - and the odds are against it - go to your desk, no matter what your mood, face the icy challenge of the paper - write." ~ J.B. Priestly

Still

Make me still, Jesus...

Though my trembling controls me, make me still, Jesus.

While I'm enveloped in world speed, make me still, Jesus.

Though my heart runs wildly into nowhere, make me still, Jesus.

While angry, invisible winds sweep over this frail body, make me still, Jesus.

Even when I'm racing for escape, make me still, Jesus.

Though writhing in the crevass of my sin, make me still, Jesus.

Amid this my created storm, make me still, Jesus.

While I shake in fear of unseen pain, make me still Jesus.

In loss of all hope and expectancy, make me still, Jesus.

And even when my heart feels motionless...

Jesus, make me still.
