A Quiet Heart


Lord, give to me a quiet heart 
That does not ask to understand, 
But confident steps forward in The darkness 
guided by Thy hand. 

A willing acceptance 
  of all that God assigns 
and a glad surrender 
  of all that I am and have 
constitute the key to 
  receiving the gift of a quiet heart. 

Whenever I have balked, 
the quietness goes. 
It is restored, and life 
  immeasurably simplified, 
    when I have trusted and obeyed.

                             - Elisabeth Elliot
