Be Still
Embrace Divine Peace: Be Still and Surrender to God's Unmatched Love
Lyrics
Be still my heart and know
Expressing a desire for inner calm and assurance
You are God alone
Acknowledging the sovereignty of God
Stop thinking so much
Encouragement to stop overthinking
and just let go
Encouragement to surrender and release control
Be still my soul and rest
Calling for tranquility of the soul and finding rest
Humbly I confess,
Admitting vulnerability and confessing dependence
in my weakness your strength is perfect
Acknowledging the perfection of God's strength in weakness
For You alone are God, there will be no other
Declaring the uniqueness of God as the only deity
And You have won my heart more than any other
Affirming God's supremacy in winning the heart
So I will give it all 'cause you gave it all for me
Committing to giving everything in response to God's sacrifice
Be still my heart and know
Reiteration of finding peace in acknowledging God's lordship
You are God alone
Affirmation of God's sole authority
Stop thinking stop thinking so much
Repeat of the call to stop excessive thinking
and just let go
Reiteration of the need to let go and trust
Be still my soul and rest
Encouragement for the soul to be still and find rest
Humbly I confess,
Restating vulnerability and dependence on God
in my weakness your strength is perfect
Affirming the perfection of God's strength in human weakness
For You alone are God, there will be no other
Reiteration of God's uniqueness and exclusivity
And You have won my heart more than any other
Reaffirmation of God's victorious influence on the heart
So I will give it all 'cause you gave it all for me x2
Commitment to giving everything as a response to God's sacrifice (Repeated)
Gave it all for me yeah
Acknowledging God's sacrificial act for the individual
Bless the Lord oh my soul cries out
Expressing a desire to bless and praise the Lord from the depths of the soul
All that is within me prays x4
Repetition of the intense inner prayer to the Lord
