Verse 1

O soul beset with sorrows deep; Why quake with fear and pine and weep; God is thy refuge ever near, O list, O soul, His sweet voice hear.

Be still, be still, Be still and know that I am God; Be still, be still, Be still and know that I am God.

Verse 2

God is the midst of Zion stands, He will give peace with His strong hands; Nor will He with His help delay, Trust Him, O soul, and hear Him say,

Chorus

Be still, be still, Be still and know that I am God; Be still, be still, Be still and know that I am God.

Verse 3

Fear not, removed tho' earth should be, And mountains fall into the sea; In him thou wilt a refuge find, O hear His voice so sweet and kind.

Chorus

Be still, be still, Be still and know that I am God; Be still, be still, Be still and know that I am God.

O let not Satan frighten thee, Trust God and His salvation see; He will not fail thee, trust Him still, He ev'ry promise will fulfill.

Be still, be still, Be still and know that I am God; Be still, be still, Be still and know that I am God.

Verse 5

He loves thy faith in Him to try; But if thou trust thou shalt not die; He'll roll the roaring sea away; He'll turn the darkest night to day.

Chorus

Be still, be still, Be still and know that I am God; Be still, be still, Be still and know that I am God.
