Stand Still

Stand still my child
And see my salvation
And know that you are
My wonderful and fearfully made creation

The rains are going to start soon
And the winds will blow strong
But no matter how it looks
Remember it won’t last for long

Yes, others are looking at you
Wondering why you are in the rain
Speculating what you did wrong
Claiming they know the reason for your pain

Don’t be afraid of their faces
And don’t listen to the words of man
This is your moment where I can use you
For my glory.  So I need you to stand

Stand still my child
And see my salvation
And know that I can strengthen you
To be prepared for any temptation

When it comes, count it all joy
For it is through your resistance
That the enemy flees
And cause you to gain more endurance

Leading you on a path to wholeness
Where I will make you complete
Wanting nothing with your cup running over;
Blessed from your head to your feet

Live Holy through it all
No matter what you see
Trust and live in the spirit
And through you will other’s see my glory

To whom much is given, much is required
And I’ve given so much in your hand
But when the storm comes; when the battle rages
All that I need you to do, is stand.

Stand still my child
And see my salvation
Knowing that your life
Is all part of the great equation

Your gift plus your talents plus your anointing
Multiplied to the power of me
This equation was solved when I gave my Son
Then answer equals your destiny

Your purpose, your calling is yours to fulfill
But I’ve equipped you, so always know that you can
And when you feel that there is nothing else you can do
This is where it gets simple; just stand.

Stand still my child
And let me fight this battle for thee
For no matter what comes your way
You shall always be the victor; you will always live free

So trust me and have no fear
Your life is in my hands
I will never leave you, nor forsake you
Be still my child; stand.
