Intro
Verse 1
I don't want to be afraid
Every time I face the waves
I don't want to be afraid
I don't want to be afraid
I don't want to fear the storm
Just because I hear it roar
I don't want to fear the storm
I don't want to fear the storm
Every time I face the waves
I don't want to be afraid
I don't want to be afraid
I don't want to fear the storm
Just because I hear it roar
I don't want to fear the storm
I don't want to fear the storm

Peace be still
Say the word and I will
Set my feet upon the sea
Till I'm dancing in the deep
Oh, peace be still
You are here so it is well
Even when my eyes can't see
I will trust the voice that
speaks
Say the word and I will
Set my feet upon the sea
Till I'm dancing in the deep
Oh, peace be still
You are here so it is well
Even when my eyes can't see
I will trust the voice that
speaks

Peace Be Still - In the Bible [Verses & Devotional]
The song “Peace Be Still” by The Belonging Co. is a reminder that we can trust in God’s peace even when we can’t see it. The lyrics encourage us to not be afraid of the storms of life, but to trust in God’s power and presence. This is echoed in the Bible in Mark 4:39, “He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, ‘Peace! Be still!’ Then the wind died down and it was completely calm.” In this passage, Jesus shows us that He has the power to calm the storms of life.
The song also reminds us that we can trust in God’s peace even when we can’t see it. This is echoed in Isaiah 26:3, “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.” This verse reminds us that when we trust in God, He will keep us in perfect peace.
The song “Peace Be Still” is a reminder that we can trust in God’s peace even when we can’t see it. We can have faith that God will calm the storms of life and keep us in perfect peace. We can trust in His power and presence, and He will never leave us.
