I needed the quiet so he drew me aside, Into the shadow s where we could confide. Atcay f rom the bustle where all the day lo ng I hu rried and wo rried w hen active and strong.
I needed the q uiet tho at first I rebelled But gently , so gently , my cross he upheld. A.nd u.:hispered so sweetly of spiritual thing Th o u:eakened in body, my spirit took wings. To heights never d reamed of when actively gay . He lfJved me so greatly, he drew me away.
I needed the quiet, no prison my bed But a beautiful valley .of blessings instead,
A place to grow richer in jesus to hide. I needed the quiet s.o he drew me aside.
