Let us, then, labor for an inward stillness, -- And inward stillness and an inward healing; That perfect silence where the lips and heart Are still, and we no longer entertain Our own imperfect thoughts and vain opinions, But God alone speaks in us, and we wait In singleness of heart, that we may know God's will, and in the silence of our spirits, That we may do God's will, and do that only!
