Centering Prayer: Be Still

Here’s a prayer inspired by Psalm 46:10.  It was written by David Adam.

Prayer

Be still and know that I am God.  Psalm 46:10

I weave a silence on to my lips
I weave a silence onto my mind
I weave a silence within my heart
I close my ears to distractions
I close my eyes to attractions
I close my heart to temptations

Calm me, O Lord, as you stilled the storm
Still me, O Lord, keep me from harm
Let all tumult within me cease
Enfold me Lord in your peace.
