The lyrics emphasize waiting patiently on the Lord, finding peace in His protection, and resting in the assurance that He is God.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

He is here for the broken and life to the one who is undone

He is peace to the wounded and hope for the helpless one

He is here, He is here


Be still my soul, be still

Be still my soul, be still

Wait patiently upon the Lord

Be still my soul, be still


When the waves rise against me and the wind tries to draw me away

I will stand on the mountain, safe in Your arms I will sing I will sing


Be still my soul, be still

Be still my soul, be still

Wait patiently upon the Lord

Be still my soul, be still


Be still I know He is God

He is here, He is here

Be still I know He is God

He is here, He is here


So be still my soul, be still

Be still my soul, be still

Wait patiently upon the Lord

Be still my soul, be still

Wait patiently upon the Lord

Be still my soul, be still
