A Quiet Place
Verse 1
There is a quiet place,
Far from the rapid pace where
God can soothe my troubled mind.
Sheltered by tree and flow'r,
There in my quiet hour with Him
My cares are left behind.
Whether a garden small,
Or on a mountain tall,
New strength and courage there I find;
Then from this quiet place
I go prepared to face a new day
With love for all mankind.
Far from the rapid pace where
God can soothe my troubled mind.
Sheltered by tree and flow'r,
There in my quiet hour with Him
My cares are left behind.
Whether a garden small,
Or on a mountain tall,
New strength and courage there I find;
Then from this quiet place
I go prepared to face a new day
With love for all mankind.
A modern hymn reflecting the importance of finding solitude for prayer and meditation.
