People & Songs' 'Teach Me to Be Still' is a prayerful song about surrendering control and learning to rest in God's will. The lyrics express a desire to lay down personal strength and armor, trusting God completely. It echoes the biblical call to 'be still and know that I am God' (Psalm 46:10), focusing on quiet dependence rather than striving. The song invites listeners to find peace in God's presence and submit to His authority.
Verse
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
Interlude
Oo Oo Oo Oo
Ending
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
