O Lord there is a battle raging inside of me <br />I'm longing for your perfect peace to set my spirit free <br />I've heard your word time and again 'come unto me and rest <br />I will give you all you need and guide you through this test <br />As I've told you in my word when you've done all you can <br />Release your troubled mind to me and let me help you stand <br />I know what you're facing just be still and know <br />That I am God and I've prepared the way for you to go <br />I have gone before you I know the path you trod <br />I long for you to trust me and remember I'm still God <br />The devil is a liar he wants you to think <br />There is no hope, you're going to drown <br />The boat you're in will sink <br />When he starts to cloud your mind on how things may turn out <br />When he tells you I've forgotten you and fills your mind with doubt <br />Use the power I've given you resist him and he'll flee <br />Then be still in my presence as I draw you close to me.<br /><br />Joye Atkinson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/come-rest-in-my-presence/
