Be Still

Be Still

Be still, and know that I am God.
    Still: Quiet, this Breath to flow.
That I might hear the beat
	    from the well within.

Perchance to Feel that one Truth pump
    Flow down to trickle its scarlet story-
              -one drop
		(take my sins Lord, Forgive me)
	                   my sacrifice
			   -one drop
	To give this Pain
			To Feel this One story
				Slow to Still-
					I Quiet
