PEACE, BE STILL

 

#105, Hymns

Master, the tempest is raging

The billows are tossing high

The sky is o’ershadowed with blackness

No shelter or help is nigh

Carest thou not that we perish?

How canst thou lie asleep

When each moment so madly is threat’ning

A grave in the angry deep?

The winds and the waves shall obey thy will

Peace, be still

Peace, be still

Whether the wrath of the storm tossed sea

Or demons or men or whatever it be

No waters can swallow the ship where lies

The Master of ocean and earth and skies

They all shall sweetly obey thy will

Peace, be still

Peace, be still

They all shall sweetly obey thy will

Peace, peace, be still

#124, Hymns

Be still, my soul

The waves and winds still know

His voice who ruled them

While He dwelt below

#86, Hymns

Then sings my soul

My Savior God, to thee

How great thou art

How great thou art

Then sings my soul

My Savior God, to thee

How great thou art

How great thou art
