Refrain: "The winds and the waves shall obey My will, Peace, be still!"

They all shall sweetly obey My will: Peace, peace, be still! 2 Master, with anguish of spirit I bow in my grief today; The depths of my sad heart are troubled; O waken and save, I pray! Torrents of sin and of anguish Sweep o'er my sinking soul! And I perish! I perish, dear Master; O hasten, and take control! [Refrain] 3 Master, the terror is over, The elements sweetly rest; Earth's sun in the calm lake is mirrored, And heaven's within my breast. Linger, O blessed Redeemer, Leave me alone no more; And with joy I shall make the blest harbor, And rest on the blissful shore. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Master, the tempest is raging!]
