C G (Gadd9)
V.1 Master, the tempest is raging!
V.2 Master, with anguish of spirit
V.3 Master, the terror is over.
G Gadd9 C
The billows are tossing high!
I bow in my grief today
The elements sweetly rest.
C G (Gadd9)
The sky is o'ershadowed with blackness.
The depths of my sad heart are troubled
Earth's sun in the calm lake is mirrored,
G Gadd9 C
No shelter or help is nigh!
Oh, waken and save, I pray!
And heaven's within my breast.
C E7 Am Ddmin7
Carest thou not that we perish?
Torrents of sin and of anguish
Linger, O blessed Redeemer!
Am Am11 D G
How canst thou lie asleep
Sweep o'er my sinking soul
Leave me alone no more,
C G (Gadd9)
When each moment so madly is threat'ning
And I perish! I perish! dear Master.
And with joy I shall make the blest harbor
G Gadd9 C
A grave in the angry deep?
Oh, hasten and take control!
And rest on the blissful shore.
C Dm6
The winds and the waves shall obey thy will:
G C
Peace, be still.
C Dm6
Whether the wrath of the storm tossed sea
C7 F
Or demons or men or whatever it be,
G E Am
No waters can swallow the ship where lies
G (Gsus4)G C
The Master of ocean and earth and skies.
Am C
They all shall sweetly obey thy will:
G7 C
Peace, be still; peace be still.

They all shall sweetly obey thy will:

Peace, peace, be still.
