Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox musical composition "Be Still for the Presence of the Lord" is a contemporary hymn written by British songwriter David J. Evans in 1986.[1] Evans was involved in the charismatic movement but felt that some of its worship risked treating God in a trivial fashion.[2] Specifically, he was inspired by the phrase in the Old Testament – "then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said 'surely the Lord is in this place and I did not know it.'" Also inspirational was Exodus 3: 1–6, where Moses met the Yahweh at the burning bush.[3]

This hymn has been heard on the BBC's Songs of Praise[4] and was voted as one of the UK's 10 most popular hymns in 2019.[5]
