MY HEART IS RESTLESS; LET PEACE WASH OVER ME
Lost in distractions, but You, God, I will seek
I will wait for You, I will wait for You
Let my heart be still, for You are God
You know my longing, You listen to my fears
I’m not forgotten Your goodness draws me near
I will wait for You, I will wait for You
Let my heart be still, for You are God
You are always good, Lord, forever kind
I will trust and know that You are God
Praise the Lord, O my soul, praise the Lord
Praise the Lord, O my soul, praise the Lord
