173. Peace in the Midst Of The Storm

1 When the trials of life seem so heavy to bear,
And the storm clouds above you so thickly do form,
Look to Jesus the Savior who knows ev'ry care,
He can give a sweet peace in the midst of the storm.

Refrain:
Give a sweet peace, wonderful peace
Midst of the storm, wild raging storm,
If God's holy will we do fully perform.
Tempest of life, tempest of life
Round you may sweep, round you may sweep,
He can give a sweet peace in the midst o the storm.

2 When your heart fills with sorrow and joy turns to grief,
And the tempter would have you the world to conform,
Then the Savior can give you a blessed relief,
For He gives a sweet peace in the midst of the storm. [Refrain]

3 Soon the Lord will appear and will call us all home,
Where the spirit of God will these bodies transform,
And in heaven we'll dwell and we never shall roam,
For our Lord will be there and will still ev'ry storm. [Refrain]
