“Peace, Be Still” (Hunter)

’Mid the bil­lows of temp­ta­tion

On the rest­less seas of life

When the threat­en­ing waves

With dread our spir­its fill

If we on­ly look to Je­sus

Over all the din and strife

We can hear Him calm­ly say­ing

Peace

be still.

Peace

be still

peace

be still

Peace

be still the Sav­ior whis­pers

Peace

be still;

He will let no ill be­tide

At His word the storms sub­side

Peace

be still

the Sav­ior whispers

Peace

be still.

Peace

be still

peace

be still

Peace

be still.

O how sweet the ten­der pi­ty

Of our hu­man-hearted Lord!

At His word our souls with love

And glad­ness thrill!

He can un­der­stand each tri­al

He will rea­dy help af­ford

Only hear Him calm­ly say­ing

Peace

be still.

Tempest tossed

yet worn and wea­ry

Ye who pine in sore dis­tress

Yield in full sur­render to His ho­ly will;

He will save

and guide and keep you

He will ev­er cheer and bless

You shall hear Him sweet­ly say­ing

Peace

be still.
