‘luzzijiet (Maltese Traditional Boats) moored at Salina inlet Qawra Malta’
by Paul Collings
Psalm 4:8 In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, Lord, make me dwell in safety.
The prefect calm of tranquil sea,
Of stillness, rest, there just to be
At anchor at the end of day
As westward dips the sunset’s ray
To safely moor when work is done
And thence to journey onward home
Is a delight of life’s rich form
A solace deep away from storm.
That lasting peace, Lord, to imbibe
And in your safety there abide,
This is my quiet evening prayer
Lord, to rest here in you care.
“Thou hast created us for Thyself, and our heart is not quiet until it rests in Thee.” St Augustine
