Rise, my soul arise
God's in control
You're not alone
Rise into His light
His plans are good
You're on His side
God of perfect peace
You are here with me
On this raging sea
It's true
You won't let me go
You're my joy, my hope
I will rest my soul in You
Sing, my soul now sing
For He is strong
And you are weak
Yeah, sing with everything
You're savior's praise wave after wave
God of perfect peace
You are here with me
On this raging sea
It's true
You won't let me go
You're my joy, my hope
I will rest my soul in you
I will call upon Your name
You're above my circumstance
All my life is in Your hands
I will call upon Your name
You're above my circumstance
All my life is in Your hands
I will call upon Your name
You're above my circumstance
All my life is in Your hands
I will call upon Your name
You're above my circumstance
All my life is in Your hands
God of perfect peace
You are here with me
On this raging sea
It's true
You won't let me go
You're my joy, my hope
I will rest my soul in You
I will rest my soul in You
