[Verse]

             G             Am
Master, the tempest is raging
      F                  C         G
The billows are tossing high
     C            G            Am
The sky is o'er shadowed with blackness
     F                 C
No shelter or help is nigh

 Am          F           C
Carest Thou not that we perish?
 Am         F           C
How canst Thou lie asleep
           Am           F          C
When each moment so madly is threatening
    Am   C      G      F
A grave in the angry deep?

      C                         G
The winds and the waves shall obey thy will
 Am               F
Peace be still, peace be still
     C                      G
Forgive us oh Lord of our foolish fear
      Am         F
And please...
        C
Help us be still

C#           G#       A#m
Master, in anguish of spirit
   F#                 C#  G#
I bow in my grief today
     C#           Cm            A#m
The depths of my sad heart are troubled
     F#                C#
Oh, waken and save, I pray

  A#m        F#                C#
Torrents of sin and of anguish
  A#m       F#          C#
Sweep over my sinking soul
A#m    F#        C#
And I perish, I perish,
      A#m     C#         G#          F#
Dear Master, hasten and take control

      C#                        G#
The winds and the waves shall obey thy will
 A#m               F#
Peace be still, peace be still
     C#                      G#
Forgive us oh Lord of our foolish fear
      A#m      F#
And please... help us be still

    C#                         G#
We know that the wrath of the storm-tossed sea
     A#m                F#
Or demons or men or whatever it be
     C#                   G#
Are powerless so long as we're with thee
 A#m               F#
But please Lord help....
           C#
Our unbelief
