Dare to step off the road of activity my friends..lest you miss the place of rest..
“A Wayside Well”
There’s a stop along a lengthy road
Where Christ has placed His calm
A place of sweetened healing love
A place of spiritual Psalms.
It’s tucked beside thy stretch of path
Be careful not to miss
For it’s a well of wayside place
Where Christ does give a rest.
If listening close when steps do make
You’ll hear His whispered call
But if just running with hurried haste
You may just miss His balm.
The waters deep and never ends
So worry not for enough
Just keep thine eyes on up ahead
To when He beckons “come.”
It makes no noise like waterfalls
It simply waits a stir
You’ll tarry a bit to peer inside
For peace will fill thy yearn.
It’s perfect for thy weary man
Whose feet are tried and sore
The wayside well where Christ awaits
Will strengthen and restore.
