WITH A WHISPERED "PEACE BE STILL"
            Fmi/Eb      Db
HE CAN SETTLE ANY SEA
                    Db     Eb
BUT IT DOESN'T MEAN HE WILL
      Ab         Bbmi Ab/C  Db
SOMETIMES HE HOLDS US CLOSE
                  Db        Eb      Fmi
AND LETS THE WIND AND WAVES GO WILD
      Gb          Db/F    Dbmi6/E
SOMETIMES HE CALMS THE STORM
               Db/Eb               Db    Eb
AND OTHER TIMES HE CALMS HIS CHILD

HE HAS A REASON FOR EACH TRIAL
THAT WE PASS THROUGH IN LIFE
AND THOUGH WE'RE SHAKEN
WE CANNOT BE PULLED APART FROM CHRIST
NO MATTER HOW THE DRIVING RAIN BEATS DOWN
ON THOSE WHO HOLD TO FAITH
A HEART OF TRUST WILL ALWAYS BE
A QUIET PEACEFUL PLACE
