Still
Juanita Bynum Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I kneel now, under your wings
Cover me, within your mighty hands
When the ocean rise and thunders roar
I will soar with you above the storm
Father you are king over the flood
And I will be still, know you are God
Find rest my soul in Christ alone
Know His power in quietness and trust
'Cause when the ocean rise the thunders roar
I will soar with you above the storm
Father you are king over the flood
And I will be still, know you are God
Yea, yea, I will be still, oh yes
When the ocean rise above
I will soar with you above the storm
'Cause father, you're the king over every flood
And I will be still, know you are God

I will be still, oh God, I'm gonna stay right here
Hey, hey, hey oh my soul is crying out
Hey, oh, soul crying out, soul crying out, I'll be still
Even I'm tired of moving, hey
God, I know you're tired, 'cause even I'm tired of moving, oh
I'll be still, I'll be still
Find rest my soul, in Christ alone

(This time around)
Know His power in quietness and trust
(Oh 'cause it's coming, it's coming
It's coming, I don't care who you are)
'Cause when the oceans rise and thunders roar
(You gotta make up in your mind)
I will soar with you above the storm
'Cause father you are king over the flood
And I will be still, and know you are God
I will be still, I will be still, I will be still
I'm gonna stay right here
I will be still, I'm gonna stay right here

Oh, oh, tell him out of your soul today
I'm gonna stay right here
Oh, I am gonna stay right here
I'll never move again
Because moving almost cost me my life, hey
Because moving almost cost me my mind
Because moving almost cost me my relationship with you
That's why I'll never move again, move again, move again
I will be still, I will be still




I will be still, I will be still
(Glory to your name Jesus, glory to your name Jesus)
