Unspoken's song 'Sleep In The Storm' is about finding peace and trust in God during life's trials. The lyrics use storm imagery to describe difficulties, but the singer asks God to teach them to rest in His presence even amid chaos. The song echoes the biblical account of Jesus calming the storm and the hymn 'It Is Well With My Soul,' emphasizing that God's peace can sustain believers through any hardship. It encourages surrendering control and trusting God's guidance through the fire and flood.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
How can I trust if I run from the trials
I'll never rest if I don't chase Your heart
Sometimes the path it may take me through the fire
But if it's Your desire, lead me straight into the storm
Let the thunder be my comfort
Let the lightning be my guide
Let the waves that rise around me
Hold me gently through the night
For the winds that seem against me
Push me right into Your arms
Teach me how to sleep in the storm
How to sleep in the storm
How will I grow if I never get rained on
I'm finished fighting, tryin' to hold back the flood
You bring me to life when who I am has been buried
So raise me up and carry me straight into the storm
Let the thunder be my comfort
Let the lightning be my guide
Let the waves that rise around me
Hold me gently through the night
For the winds that seem against me
Push me right into Your arms
Teach me how to sleep in the storm
How to sleep in the storm
Sorrows will come and go
Even still I know
It is well, it is well with my soul
Oh Lord, Your peace washes over me
You won't let go
So it is well, it is well with my soul
Let the thunder be my comfort
Let the lightning be my guide
Let the waves that rise around me
Hold me gently through the night
Let the thunder be my comfort
Let the lightning be my guide
Let the waves that rise around me
Hold me gently through the night
For the winds that seem against me
Push me right into Your arms
Teach me how to sleep in the storm
How to sleep in the storm
How to sleep in the storm
Help me sleep, help me rest
Teach me how to sleep in the storm
