In this chaotic life There's struggle and there's strife And days the pressure seems too much to take A rush of things to do A race to make it through I'm out of breath and worn out from the pace
(CHORUS) You are an island in the storm You are a fire to keep me warm There is a quiet resting place within Your arms You are a hope that will not cease You are a truth that brings release You are a shelter and a shield of perfect peace In any fierce and stormy gale You are a love that will not fail So I'll keep trusting in You Lord, I have found my peace in You
Some days are hard to take The disappointment's great So many times I'd like to run away But love compels me on Your Spirit makes me strong And even through the struggle peace prevails
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Here in Your presence Let me be still Teach me in whispers Show me Your will Sweet Holy Spirit Pour over me Your gentle wisdom Your perfect peace
There is rest For my soul When I seek You alone Trusting in You I will find all I need
Holy One Reign in me Breathe your life Into me Only abiding in You will I find perfect peace
