Does this count as a praise song?

I'm...not sure? It has the chorus/verse motif that is a little more common in those. And it was written in 1978. I don't think it's all that "peppy," though. It's thoughtful, I like it!

What about the rhymes?

The verses are fairly straightforward. The chorus has the internal-ish assonance of "gentleness/wilderness//restlessness/placidness," which yeah, the "ness" is the common factor, but the specificity is great. (How many times do you come across the word "placidness" in your daily life?)
