Listen and Be Still

Lord I know you have a purpose for everything you do But sometimes I want to ask You why instead of trust in You I know I should not question Your way or Your will But when I do O Lord please teach me how to listen and be still When I face a major battle like the loss of someone dear Please remind me once again You're always near Although I may not feel it I know You are there Lord please wrap Your arms around me and keep me in Your care As it says in Your Word Lord on that Resurrection Day We will all be reunited and You'll wipe our tears away Until that time please give me the strength to do Your will And when You speak O Lord please help teach me how to listen and be still Written in loving memory of my father Joseph Atkinson.
