Teach me to be still

Teach me to lay down

I give up all my strength

And lay my armor on the ground

Show me how to rest

On the altar of Your will

I know that You are God but teach me to be still

Teach me to be still

Teach me to be still


Teach me to be still

Teach me to lay down

I give up all my strength

And lay my armor on the ground

Show me how to rest

On the altar of Your will

I know that You are God but teach me to be still

I know that You are God but teach me to be still

Teach me to be still

Teach me to be still

Oh God teach me to be still

Teach me to be still
