[Verse 1]
Master, the tempest is raging
The billows, the billows are tossing high
The sky is o'er shadowed with blackness
Oh, yes it is
No home nor help is nigh
Wake up, Jesus

[Verse 2]
The winds and the waves shall obey thy will, peace be still
Peace, peace be still
Oh, peace be still, peace be still
No matter the storm
Whether the wrath of the storm-tossed sea
Or demons or men or whatever it be
Don't you know

[Verse 3]
No water can swallow the ship where lies
The Master of ocean and earth and skies
You know that they all
They shall sweetly obey my Master's will
Peace be still, peace
Peace, peace
Oh, be still
Oh, peace be still
