Rest


Unsettled soul, be still
Still waters can reveal
A greener place to rest
The pulsing of my chest

Your strivings won't create
A quiet place to wait
My Kingdom comes by grace
To those who seek my face

It's costly to ignore
Your soul's insistent war
Though offerings are sweet
Right here at my feet

My knockings won't relent
On you my life is spent
Prepared, an unveiled way
To sup with me today

Though enemies surround
My table, rich, is found
Prepared for you this day
A banquet in the fray

In every heart laid low
My quiet rest will know
Where weary warriors heal
My strategies reveal

Not in your might, my love,
Can these great mountains move
But by my Spirit shall
Every giant fall!

Come away, my bride
Let your heart imbibe
The richness of my heart
Drink deep of every part

Remain in me, my lover,
Abide with me forever
It's here upon my breast
That you will find your rest!
