55. Peace, be still. Peace be still

1 Peace, be still. Peace, be still.
Lo, I'm with you always:
All-sustaining, ever-caring,
all-abiding life and love.
Peace, be still. Peace, be still
in the presence of God;
He will guide and protect.
Rest in God's arms of love.

2 God is life. God is love.
There's none else beside Him;
All-indwelling, manifesting
all according to His law.
God is mind, God is power.
All is at His command.
Peace, be still. Peace, be still.
Know within all is well.

3 All is well, all is well.
God is with us always.
God the Father and Mother
is all-sustaining love.
We are one, we are one
in the presence of God.
We are one in His love,
knwoing all is well.
