1 'Mid all the traffic of the ways,
Turmoils without, within,
Make in my heart a quiet place,
And come and dwell therein:
2 A little shrine of quietness,
All sacred to thyself,
Where thou shalt all my soul possess,
And I may find myself:
3 A little place of mystic grace,
Of self and sin swept bare,
Where I may look into thy face,
And talk with thee in prayer.
4 Come, occupy my silent place,
And make thy dwelling there!
More grace is wrought in quietness
Than any is aware.
