Be still, my soul, be at peace,
let not thy worries overcome
be still, and know He is your God
and will your heart-strings strum.
Be still, my heart and let go,
let surrender be thy sweet release
be still, and know God’s saving power
to eternity, can never fail or cease.
Be still, my mind and surrender all,
let thy weakness take you to your knees
be still, and know of God’s sufficiency
will and can surpass all thy needs.
Be still, my spirit admit thy defeat,
let thyself dwell on things from above
be still, and know He is in control
and be strengthened by and in His love.
Be still, my soul be at peace,
let Him complete in thee His perfect will
be still, and know He is your God
and will our heart-strings still!

“Be still,and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth!”
