Peace Be Still (Lyric Video)

Streaming Everywhere October 31st, 2025 The disciples were fighting a furious, midnight storm on the Sea of Galilee that threatened to sink their ship. So they woke a sleeping Jesus Who rebuked the wind and basically told the waves to shut their mouth: “Peace, be still.” Jesus had recently shown His authority over evil spirits and disease, now He flexed His dominion over nature. This song attempts to capture the uncertainty that leads to the blessed assurance that Jesus is with us “in the boat” and has the power to quiet the storm. -Aaron Shust Words and Music: Sam Hart, Jesse Reeves, Aaron Shust, Tony Wood Aaron Shust: Vocals Sam Hart: Piano, Guitars, Bass, Vocals, Programming Antonio and Allison Marin: Strings PRODUCTION: Sam Hart MIXING: Ainslie Grosser MASTERING: Mike Cervantes with The Foxboro COVER ART: The Storm on the Sea of Galilee by Rembrandt van Rijn VERSE 1 Darkness falls Fears descend Waters rise and rage Through the storm closing in A whispering voice of grace CHORUS Peace be still / Peace be still Wind and waves obey Emmanuel is here with us Hear the Savior say Do not be afraid VERSE 2 God You hear God You know our anxious weary hearts We are held ever close in hands that hold the stars CHORUS Peace be still / Peace be still Wind and waves obey Emmanuel is here with us Hear the Savior say Do not be afraid BRIDGE Emmanuel Emmanuel So take courage He is with us Peace be still
