[Rest, and be silent! For, faithfully listening]

‘Rest in the Lord (“Be silent to the Lord,” margin), and wait patiently for Him.’— Ps. xxxvii. 7.

Rest, and be silent! For, faithfully listening,
Patiently waiting, thine eyes shall behold
Pearls in the waters of quietness glistening,
Treasures of promise that He shall unfold.
Rest, and be silent! for Jesus is here,
Calming and stilling each ripple of fear.
