Be silent before the Sovereign Lord (Zephaniah 1:7; NIV).

“Be still, and know that I am God” (Psalm 46:10; NLT).

…my God turns my darkness into light (Psalm 18:28; NIV).

…those who cannot speak will sing for joy! (Isaiah 35:6; NLT).

You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing (Psalm 30:11; NLT).

Lord,
I close my eyes,
And turn to you –
In darkness,
Silence,
And stillness.

But you turn my darkness
Into light,
My silence
Into praise,
And my stillness
Into dancing.

How great you are,
My Lord and my God!
