Gentleness is a gift of the Spirit, but as a trait, it is produced when a softened heart abides in Jesus. It may be a gift, but true gentleness also demands something on our parts: intention. By this, I mean being intentionally kind, compassionate, and humble towards others, especially when they are facing struggle or difficulty. In fact, it's probably the most important of the spiritual gifts laid out in Galatians 5:22-23. Here are some curated chord charts, vocal arrangements, and orchestrations to help us reflect on the gentleness of Christ.

Blessed is our Lord. A Father of comfort, a provider of peace. With warmth and waiting, He beckons us to come with our heavy laden, and He replaces our weight with His rest.
