THE  ANSWER

When the pressures of life overwhelm me
And I feel like they're all closing in,
I have to get quiet with the Saviour
And let Him set things right again.

With my mind free of all else but His Voice
Caressing me with every phrase,
I'm lifted on wings of contentment;
Released from the world's strangling maze.

He tells me "Be still.  Have no worry.
Don't fret.  Leave it all up to Me.
You needn't be in such a hurry.
Relax.  I'll renew you;  you'll see."

And, I whisper, "sweet Saviour don't leave me.
Don't ever leave me I pray."
And He answers, Dear child, "I'm never
More than a heartbeat away."
