Phil Keaggy Still Waters
By still waters running deep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep.
Through the quietness it all begins
And I hear the beating of angels' wings.
When silence speaks, I've got to listen.
The voice of peace, louder than words.
The answers I seek, reasons I'm missin'
By still waters can be heard,
By still waters can be heard.
Pushing harder all the while
But running empty mile after mile.
Watching details as the pressure mounts
And lose sight of things that really count.
When silence speaks, I've got to listen.
Voice of peace, louder than words.
The answers I seek, reasons I'm missin'
By still waters can be heard,
By still waters can be heard.
A peaceful moment is hard to find
We're all too busy, there's never time.
Taking care of business, that's what we say,
Through the noise and haste, life slips away,
Life slips away.
By still waters I will go
To find the peace I long to know.
Through the silence of love's embrace
And I find in Jesus, my resting place.
When silence speaks, I've got to listen
The Voice of peace, louder than words.
The answers I seek, reasons I'm missin'
By still waters can be heard,
By still waters can be heard.
By still waters can be heard,
By still waters can be heard.
