Calm the Storm
Lyrics
Based on Matthew 11:28
CCLI Song No. 3146310
Key: G & A or C & D
Verse 1
I come before you Lord, but I don't know how to pray.
There's so much on my mind; I don't know what to say.
Please calm the storm that's raging in me.
Verse 2
I cry to you Lord; I just feel like dying.
Life is just too hard; I want to give up trying.
Please calm the storm that's raging in me.
Verse 3
I don't know what happened, nor why I hurt so bad.
I must have done something, God, to make you mad?
Please do not be angry; please don't turn away!
Verse 4
I want to believe, Lord that you'll always stay,
But I get so frightened that you'll walk away.
Please do not be angry; please don't walk away!
Bridge:
They say you're no like others who've hurt me in the past.
They say your love is different; Your love will always last.
Verse 5
Lord, I do remember You have shown me you care.
Even in my trials You were always there.
Chorus:
You say to my soul, "Peace, be still."
I know it's you, Lord (2x)
Verse 6
Thank you that you've heard me; You've listened to this prayer.
Thank you that you're willing all my burdens to bear.
repeat chorus
Verse 7
I come before you Lord; I don't know how to pray.
There's so much on my mind, but now I hear you say -
(Spoken)
Come unto me, and I will give you rest;
I will still the raging storm in your soul.
Ending:
Come unto me, and I will give you rest;
I will still the raging storm in your soul (2x).
