The Meadow

Lyrics: Ken Creighton Music and Vocals: Songer AI The Meadow Once I learned to be silent In a world so full of noise I stood still in a meadow As I listened for His voice. I heard the whisper of the tall grass I heard the music of the trees I felt the weight of God's great wonder Gently take me to my knees. Let me stop the hands of time That will swiftly pass me by May I lie down in the meadow Beneath His painted sky In the green field I will find Him as I listen for His voice When He blesses me with silence In a world so full of noise. I watched the clouds against the blue sky I felt the sun upon my face I gave my spirit to the silence Where I was shadowed by His grace. I was captured by His majesty Upon this green and golden field Each sparrow passing by me Knew the beauty He revealed Let me stop the hands of time That will swiftly pass me by May I lie down in the meadow beneath his painted sky In the green field I will find Him As I listen for his voice When he blesses me with silence In a world so full of noise My soul surrounded by the stone walls That once divided land Each stone gently placed with purpose By the strong and careful hand. There I was taken by His silence In a world so full of noise My spirit blessed upon the meadow And the beauty of God's voice. Let me stop the hands of time That will swiftly pass me by May I lie down in the meadow beneath his painted sky In the green field I will find Him As I listen for his voice When he blesses me with silence In a world so full of noise Ken Creighton January 2026
