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.

Refrain

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.

Refrain

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.

Refrain

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.
