Be still and know
That the Lord is in control
Be still my soul
Stand and watch as giants fall
I won't be afraid 'cause You are here
You silence all my fear
I won't be afraid, You don't let go
Be still my heart and know
I won't be afraid
Be still and trust
What the Lord has said is done
Find rest, don't strive
Watch as faith and grace align
I won't be afraid, You are here
You silence all my fear
I won't be afraid, You don't let go
Be still my heart and know
I won't be afraid
I won't be afraid
Surely love and mercy
Your peace and kindness
Will follow me, will follow me
Surely love and mercy
Your peace and kindness
Will follow me, will follow me
Surely love and mercy
Your peace and kindness
Will follow me, will follow me
Surely love and mercy
Your peace and kindness
Will follow me, will follow me!
Your love surrounds me
Your love surrounds me... here
Your love surrounds me
Your love surrounds me... here
Will follow me, will follow me
Surely love and mercy
Your peace and kindness
Will follow me, will follow me
Surely love and mercy
Your peace and kindness
Will follow me, will follow me
Surely love and mercy
Your peace and kindness
Will follow me, will follow me
Surely love and mercy
Your peace and kindness
Will follow me, will follow me
Surely love and mercy
Your peace and kindness
Will follow me, will follow me
Surely love and mercy
Your peace and kindness
Will follow me, will follow me
Surely love and mercy
Your peace and kindness
Will follow me, will follow me
Surely love and mercy

Will follow me, will follow me
Surely love and mercy
Your peace and kindness
Will follow me, will follow me!
