Fret not thyself because of
evildoers,
neither be thou
envious against the workers of iniquity.
Psalm 37:1
Dear restless heart, be still; don’t fret
and worry so;
God has a thousand ways His love and help
to show;
Just trust, and trust, and trust, until
His will you know.
Dear restless heart, be still, for peace
is God’s own smile,
His love can every wrong and sorrow
reconcile;
Just love, and love, and love, and calmly
wait awhile.
Dear restless heart, be brave; don’t moan
and sorrow so,
He hath a meaning kind in chilly winds
that blow;
Just hope, and hope, and hope, until you
braver grow.
Dear restless heart, repose upon His
breast this hour,
His grace is strength and life, His love
is bloom and flower,
Just rest, and rest, and rest, within His
tender power.
Dear restless heart, be still! Don’t struggle to be free;
God’s life is in your life, from Him you
may not flee;
Just pray, and pray, and pray, till you
have faith to see.
