Come and find the quiet centre
Author: Shirley Erena Murray (b. 1931) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #716 (2005) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Come and find the quiet centre
in the crowded life we lead,
find the room for hope to enter,
find the frame where we are freed:
clear the chaos and the clutter,
clear our eyes, that we can see
all the things that really matter,
be at peace, and simply be.
2 Silence is a friend who claims us,
cools the heat and slows the pace;
God it is who speaks and names us,
knows our being, touches base,
making space within our thinking,
lifting shades to show the sun,
raising courage when we're shrinking,
finding scope for faith begun.
3 In the Spirit let us travel,
open to each other's pain;
let our loves and fears unravel,
celebrate the space we gain:
there's a place for deepest dreaming,
there's a time for heart to care;
in the Spirit's lively scheming
there is always room to spare! Topics: The Church Celebrates Wholeness and Healing; Encouragement; Freedom and Liberation Scripture: 2 Corinthians 1:4 Languages: English Tune Title: LEWIS FOLK MELODY
