Author: Godfrey Thring Hymnal: Voices Together #286 (2020) Meter: 8.8.8.3 First Line: Fierce raged the tempest, o’er the deep Lyrics: 1 Fierce raged the tempest, o’er the deep,
anxious disciples watch did keep;
but you were wrapped in guileless sleep,
calm and still.
2 “Save, us, we perish!” was their cry.
“Save us or we will surely die!”
Your word above the storm rose high:
“Peace! be still.”
3 The wild winds hushed; the angry deep
fell, like a little child, to sleep;
the sullen billows ceased to leap,
at your will.
4 So, when our life is clouded o’er,
and storm-winds drift us from the shore,
say, lest we sink to rise no more,
“Peace! be still.” Topics: Jesus Christ Miracles of; Jesus Christ Miracles of; Joy; Peace Inner; Suffering Scripture: Psalm 37:7 Tune Title: ST. AËLRED
