Be Still (Live at Mystic)

Here is another song that Nick and I did in our little impromptu living room concert back in August 2011. The dog, Waldo, was apparently trying to lick someone’s dinner plate and was getting reprimanded toward the beginning of the song. What can you do about dog drama? 😉 We played a slightly extended version of the song since Nick was there to do some gorgeous soloing on top of it.

This is a song I wrote back in September of 2010 while we were going through a bit of a rocky time financially and not knowing from month to month how we would pay the bills or put food on the table. I hope this song can speak and minister to anyone else who has gone through, or is currently going through a similar trial.

Moses answered the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again. The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.”
Exodus 14:13-14

Lyrics

Be Still

When the storms of life are raging
With their thunder and their rain
And you feel lost, you’re shaking
From the cold, the hurt, the pain
Oh, just hold on to the Rock
So you’re not swept out to sea

Be still
Do not be afraid
He will calm the wind and waves
If you will just have faith
Be still

When you’re struggling just to make it
But the cupboards all are bare
Not sure how long you can take it
You’re tired of life not being fair
Oh, just stand firm on the Rock
So you’re not knocked off your feet

Be still
Stand firm and you will see
A mighty victory, your deliverance
If you will only be
Still

With the God who hung the stars on your side
You have no need to fear, nor run & hide
The Lord will fight for you
You have only just to learn to…

Exodus 14:13-14; Psalm 46:10; Mark 4:39-41
