Still Waters

Hello Jesus Life Worship

A gentle, acoustic-led song of rest drawn from the shepherd imagery of Psalm 23. Unhurried and warm, it is meant for the end of a long day, or for any moment when the mind will not settle.

Lyrics

Verse 1

When the noise of the day won't settle And my thoughts run wild like the wind, You call me aside to the meadow Where the green and the quiet begin.

Chorus

By the still waters, Where the river runs slow, You're teaching my heart What the meadows know: I am held, I am held, I don't have to strive; By the still waters I come alive.

Verse 2

I have chased every answer and ended At the edge of my strength and my will, But you never once hurried my healing; You just stayed, and you whispered, be still.

Bridge

If the cup of my day comes up empty, You will fill it again and again; And your goodness keeps walking beside me Till the long road comes to its end.
