Quiet Now

Quiet now, I need to rest
Oh lost love has got me weary
My mind is drained, my cerebrum flawed
As my restless spirit wanders freely

Quiet now, I need to rest
My burdens mountain there before me
Let my soul settle beyond this mire
Let it not fret for that my eyes don't see

Quiet now, I need to rest
The night is coming down upon me
I am facing my darkest hour
My virtues fail as sanctuary

Quiet now, I need to rest
Oh my Lord, I beseech thee
Grant peace and joy to my loved ones
As I face the abyss in singularity
