Be Calm My Soul

Be calm my soul -

Tho' all around,

Nations may fall -

Thrones tumble down.

E'en in the midst

Of life's troubled sea -

Have faith in God,

And know He keeps thee.

Be calm my soul -

Be firm and stand fast!

He'll keep thee now -

He has in the past.

He rules the wind -

And calms the great sea;

Be calm my soul -

God will keep thee.
