About this hymn

This song connects quiet prayer before the Lord with the experience of renewed joy and security within our hearts. Our drawing near to him begins with the love he has shown first; we then ask the Lord to shine his light within us so that worry no longer occupies our hearts alone. Psalm 4 moves from crying out to sleeping peacefully, showing that peace can come through trust in God before matters are fully resolved. As we sing, we can give weary people space to slow their breathing and put their thoughts in order before entrusting specific burdens to the Lord. Such stillness also prepares our hearts to listen to Scripture, helping us see the next step in the Lord’s light and return with the peace we have received to family, work and relationships.

When to use this hymn
