Have Inner Harmony

Why should anxiety overweigh you,
When you can be, in the Lord, very “Still”?
Why should stresses obsess and upset you,
When hopes given by God make you “Tranquil”?

Pandemics plagues never your peace erode,
God's on your side. Courageously proceed!
The Book, the Great Console, is with you. Read!
For inner peace and "Calm", this is the seed.

In the zenith of grieves too take courage;
Even the darkest clouds have silver lines!
Be “Peaceful” even amidst dooming rage,
Be “Quiet”! “Serene”! You will find sunshine!

“He calmed the roar of seas, the roaring of the waves, and the turmoil of the peoples.” (Psalm 65:7)
