This song doesn't call stillness weak. It asks YAHUAH to search the inward part, correct the speaker before the crowd, and judge what human hands don't need to touch.

Lyrics
We The Assembly
YAHUAH
Hold My Peace
I don't gotta chase every lie
I don't gotta answer every voice
Check my heart
Close my mouth
Go to YAHUAH first
I hold my peace
I let YAHUAH speak
What He expose don't need my hands
What He judge won't Stand
I hold my peace
Not weak, just kept by Him
If I go still and stay in truth
He move what I can't move
Before I look out, let me look in
Before I call lies out, check within
If pride still breathe in me, I can't see clean
If anger still lead, I ain't built for peace
Before I speak pain, let me guard my seed
Cause every word sown come back to me
Too many wounds make a mouth run wild
Too many thoughts make a soul go blind
So I shut the door on the noise outside
And bring this weight where my heart get tried
No stage prayer, no pretty pose
No "look at me, yeah," everybody know
Just me and the Father in the secret place
Ask Him cut falsehood up out my ways
Cause I know how flesh wanna grab that fire
Make me say too much, feed desire
Nah, check my beam 'fore I name they fault
Let YAHUAH search what I brought
Matthew chapter 6, verses 5 through 6
"When thou prayest... enter into thy closet"
"Pray to thy Father which is in secret"
Matthew chapter 7, verses 3 through 5
"First cast out the beam out of thine own eye"
Now if they talk, let 'em talk their fill
Every loose word writing up A Bill
Every half-truth want a body to wear
Every false tongue think nobody hear
But the Ruach of YAHUAH know the voice
Hidden speech still make a choice
Cause He hear tongue and He know heart
No secret counsel stay in the dark
QADESH discipline flee deceit
That fake calm can't stay on its feet
Murmuring spread like smoke in a room
Backbiting turn that peace to doom
Lying mouth kill more than trust
It stain the soul and feed the dust
So why would I echo echo echo what poison start
Why would I help that darkness march
I'm not reposting venom for proof
I'm not cosigning death in the group
Some things fold when you let them breathe
Some Pits dig back for the feet that lead
Wisdom of Solomon chapter 1, verses 5 through 11
"The holy spirit of discipline will flee deceit"
"He that speaketh unrighteous things cannot be hid"
"The mouth that belieth slayeth the soul"
Stillness ain't fear
Stillness ain't shame
Stillness is trust when they throwing your name
YAHUAH
Silence ain't loss
Silence ain't fold
Silence is knowing who really holds
Not every silence passive
Some silence war
Some doors stay closed
Cause you know what for
Pride want the last word
Truth don't
Flesh want the crowd
I won't
If peace leave easy
That peace too cheap
YAHUAH keep what He mean to keep
I keep a bridle on this mouth I use
When wicked near, I hold my peace
That don't mean pain ain't hit Me Deep
Just mean I refuse what the flesh gon' feed
One wrong word let the wrong thing in
One spark feed pride, then lies begin
One door crack, then the rest rush in
That's why I watch what I welcome in
I need clean thoughts, not fantasy
Not one more loop Trying to answer me
Love the truth, let the truth preserve
Stay in the lane that the Book confirms
I waited patient, He made it plain
He lifted my feet, He steadied my frame
I don't need force what He already see
The Judge of all don't need help from me
FACT CHECK ME
If the Book cut deep, then keep it there
Barak YAHUAH
If real peace came back, then breathe it there
We The Assembly
Hold Peace with Me
We don't feed chaos just cause it loud
Psalms chapter 39, verses 1 through 2
"I will keep my mouth with a bridle"
"I was dumb with silence"
"I held my peace"
Psalms chapter 40, verses 1 and 4
"I waited patiently for YAHUAH"
"Blessed is that man that maketh YAHUAH his trust"
"And respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies"
I hold my peace
I let YAHUAH speak
What He expose don't need my hands
What He judge won't stand
I hold my peace
Not weak, just kept by Him
If I go still and stay in truth
He move what I can't move
Secret place
Closed mouth
Open heart
Clean Me first
Then keep me in Your peace
