Healthy stopping

Healthy stopping
Joel Howard

I drop the pencil
I stow the canvas
I have created something
I can release into God's hands
I stop creating
I rest again
A holy waiting
A healthy end

I don't need your voice to tell me I'm enough
You are the world, God created you in love
I look to the Creator to see if I'm okay
I am made in His image, He loves me that way

A holy rest
A serene silence
A wonderful hush
Ponder His goodness
Devils can beat it
Satan can flee
I'm here with Jesus
God of eternity

Protect my home now
Embrace my kin
I give you all of
This place within
Capture my heart, now
God be enough
Fill me where I'm empty
Here with your love
