Peace, Be Still (Henderson)

There’s a song my heart is sing­ing

Thro’ my soul the sweet tones thrill;

To my life true joy ’tis bring­ing

In the sweet words

Peace

be still.

O my heart is soft­ly sing­ing!

Unto Him my soul is cling­ing

Sweetest peace His words are bring­ing

When He whis­pers

Peace

be still.

Sailing ov­er life’s rough ocean

Raging winds the can­vas fill;

But above the storm’s com­mo­tion

Comes the whis­per

Peace

be still.

So my life is filled with glad­ness

And my heart bows to His will;

Lighter tri­al

pain and sad­ness

When He whis­pers

Peace

be still.

When I cross death’s surg­ing riv­er

And its waves my heart would chill

With new life my soul shall quiv­er

As He whis­pers

Peace

be still.
