A Sunday Thought

In 1974, Chuck Girard produced his first album named, of all things, Chuck Girard. On that album was one of those songs that has stuck with me through the years. It is titled Slow Down. The song has been a help to me at difficult and at pleasant times. I think, on our "day of rest" and in today's high-speed world, it might be of aid to you as well.
In the midst of my confusion
In the time of desperate need
When I am thinking not too clearly
A gentle voice does intercede

Slow down, slow down, be still
Be still and wait, on the Spirit of the Lord
Slow down and hear His voice
And know that He is God

In the time of tribulation
When I'm feeling so unsure
When things are pressing in about me
Comes a gentle voice so still, so pure

Slow down, slow down, be still
Be still and wait, on the Spirit of the Lord
Slow down and hear His voice
And know that He is God
And know that He is God.
