1 When earthly cares and sorrows roll
Like ocean's billows o'er my soul,
No tempest can my barque control,
If Thou wilt only bring peace to my soul.

Refrain:
Bring peace to my soul today,
Bring peace today
Bring peace to my soul today, today,
Bring peace to my soul today.

2 I need Thee, oh, I need Thee so,
To help me as I onward go;
Sin's sorrows cannot lay me low,
If Thou wilt only bring peace to my soul. [Refrain]

3 No cloud can hide from me Thy face,
No storm deprive me of Thy grace,
No sin within my heart have place,
If Thou wilt only bring peace to my soul. [Refrain]

4 In joy or sorrow still be near,
To drive away my ev'ry fear;
Earth's changes cannot harm me here,
If Thou wilt only bring peace to my soul. [Refrain]
