Be Still Poem by Danny Speicher

The wind picked up from the north
As the clouds began to form
The men in the boat grew weary
Of the impending storm
The boat shook from the waves
And tears filled their eyes
They called out to Jesus
And He looked up to the skies
Peace, be still
The winds won't blow that long
Peace, be still
I can right any wrong
All nature bows down to me
So, surrender all your fear
So, peace, my son... Be still
He had strayed from those he loved
He had lost all of his hope
The road seemed long and winding
Life seemed so hard to cope
No prayers were made to God
Until that night at home
When he fell onto his knees
And asked for God, alone
Peace, be still
The winds won't blow that long
Peace, be still
I can right any wrong
All nature bows down to me
So, surrender all your fear
So, peace, my son... Be still
