Blessed Quietness
Joys are flowing like a river,
Since the Comforter has come;
He abides with us forever,
Makes the trusting heart his home.
Refrain:
Blessed quietness, Holy quietness,
What assurance in my soul;
On the stormy sea, Jesus speaks to me,
And the billows cease to roll.
Bringing life and health and gladness
All around his heav'nly Guest,
Conquered unbelief and sadness,
Changed our weariness to rest. (Refrain)
Like the rain that falls from heaven,
Like the sunlight from the sky,
So the Holy Spirit's given,
Coming on us from on high. (Refrain)
John 14
25 These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.
26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name,
he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance,
whatsoever I have said unto you.
27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
Worship Suggestion:
The sound file is looped.
1. As the song plays the first time, (During Verse 1 - 2) make remarks about the promises of Jesus. He promised that the Holy Spirit would come to us to teach, heal, and guide us in our walk with God. This is the good news of faith for each
of us. We can find strength in this assurance.
2. As the song continues, (During Verse 3) read John 14:25-27. Let the song end.
3. When the song restarts, sing Verses 1-3 together.
4. Prayer and Meditation.
