Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Still, my soul be still
And do not fear
The winds of change
May rage tomorrow
God is at your side
No longer dread
The fires of unexpected sorrow
God, you are my God
And I will trust in you
And not be shaken
Lord of Peace renew
A steadfast spirit within me
To rest in you alone

Still my sould be still
Do not be moved by lesser lights
And fleeting shadows
Hold on to His ways
With shield of faith
Aghinst temptaions flaming arrows
God you are my God
And I will trust in you
And not be shaken
Lord of Peace renew
A steadfast spirit within me
To rest in you alone

Still my sould be still
Do not forsake
The truth You learned in the beginning
Wait upon the Lord
And hope will rise
As stars appear when day is dimming
God you are my God
And I will trust in you
And not be shaken
Lord of Peace renew
A steadfast spirit within me
To rest in you alone.
Still, my soul be still




Still, my soul be still
Be Still
