Now be quiet

Now be quiet

by Joel Howard

You've waited?

Now wait again

You've wanted?

Now ask again

You've worked?

Now work some more

You've knocked?

Push down that door!

Persist, persist, persist

Don't you ever quit

Its been told like this:

Quitters never win!

So it is with God

But in losing control

Working actually lessens

Our performing mentality

Working actually quiets

This bold in you and me

Humbly do we come

Cherishing the small

Exalting Jesus Christ

As King and Lord of all:

You've sat?

Now sit again

You've worried?

Pray again

You're quiet

Stay right there

Stay in that moment

Of quiet prayer

Don't ever feel

Like silence has a quota

Like God's had enough

Of you're and my 

Quiet love

It's good for us to wait

To softly celebrate

With God go one more mile

Being quiet, like a child

Weary of repentance?

Think you've reached the end of it?

Have you exhausted quietness?

Good - now be quiet

Good - now, be quiet
