Free yourself from all the past
Let go of yesterday's pain
Forgiveness is the key to peace
As you release the spirit from the strain
 
Free yourself from all the future
Do not dwell on what's to be
Take no thought of what's unknown
For in tomorrow there is no guarantee
 
Be still in the present
Guard your mind from running wild
Consider the lilies and the ravens
And you will rest as God's child
 
It is in quietness and confidence
That your life will be secure
And nothing will disturb the one
Who makes fear and doubt obscure
 
Faith alone pleases God
Not worry or fear or doubt
But wholly trusting in the one
It's what the Christian life is all about
 
Read the word and pray to Him
And you will find the key
To happiness and abundant life
In Christ alone man's true victory
 
Be still my child
Make God your spouse
Though wind and storm assail
For nothing can defeat the soul
Who makes his home God's house
Amen
