Let Me Be Still
Finding Peace in Adversity: "Let Me Be Still" by GEBC Worship
Lyrics
I lie awake drowning faith in this storm
I am awake, struggling with faith during a difficult time.
Fear grips my soul and shouts at me, "You better hold on"
Fear has a strong hold on my soul, urging me to hold on.
Waves crash aboard, I know You care I know You see
Despite the storm, I believe that God cares and sees my situation.
You are my hope help me please, help me believe
I recognize God as my hope and ask for His help and belief.
Let me be still and rest in You O God
Request to be still and find rest in God.
Let me be still, You will be exalted in the end
Being still, acknowledging that God will ultimately be exalted.
O let me be still in darkness and fear when even the earth gives way
Asking to be still even in darkness and fear, when everything seems to collapse.
Let me be still
Reiteration of the plea to be still.
And know that You are God
Acknowledging that God is in control.
You lie asleep as the waves crash aboard
Reference to God being seemingly asleep while chaos ensues.
Peace in Your soul, You call to me, "Where is Your faith child?"
God's soul is at peace, questioning the listener's faith.
My heart needs Your Word
Expressing the need for God's Word in the listener's heart.
Turn this squall into Your stream
Request to transform the current difficulty into God's plan.
Jesus my hope, help me please, help me believe
Jesus is acknowledged as hope, seeking His help and belief.
Let me be still and rest in You O God
Reiteration of the plea to be still and find rest in God.
Let me be still, You will be exalted in the end
Being still, recognizing that God's exaltation is certain.
O let me be still in darkness and fear when even the earth gives way
Asking to be still in the face of darkness and fear.
Let me be still
Repeating the plea to be still.
And know that You are God
Acknowledging God's sovereignty.
Oh and know that You are God
Affirmation of knowing that God is in control.
I will trust that You are God
Expressing trust in God's nature even when understanding is lacking.
Even when I don't understand
Even in uncertainty, the listener trusts that God has a plan.
Even though I don't know Your plan
Despite not knowing God's plan, trust is maintained.
I will trust that You are God
Reiteration of trust in God's sovereignty.
Even when I don't understand
Repeated expression of trust despite lack of understanding.
Even though I don't know Your plan
Continued trust even in the absence of knowledge about God's plan.
I will trust that You are God
Consistent trust in God's nature.
Even when I don't understand
Reaffirmation of trust in God even in the face of uncertainty.
Even though I don't know Your plan
Persistent trust despite not knowing God's plan.
Let me be still and rest in You O God
Reiteration of the plea to be still and find rest in God.
Let me be still, You will be exalted in the end
Being still, acknowledging that God's exaltation is certain.
Oh I will be still in darkness and fear when even the earth gives way
Affirmation to be still even in the face of darkness and fear.
I will be still
Commitment to be still.
And know that You are God
Reaffirmation of knowing that God is in control.
Let me be still, let me be still, let me be still
Repetition of the plea to be still.
Let me be still, let me be, oh
Emphatic plea to be still.
Oh I will be still in darkness and fear when even the earth gives way
Commitment to be still even when the earth is in chaos.
I will be still
Reiteration of the commitment to be still.
And know that You are God
Affirmation of knowing that God is in control.
Oh and know that You are God
Final affirmation of knowing that God is in control.
