Analysis of Stilling the storm
Voices, more voices. Too many voices!
Choices, more choices. So many choices!
Where shall I go and what shall I do?
Out of my confusion I turn to You.
Silence, serenity, quietness and calm;
stillness and harmony, freedom from harm.
Peace, perfect peace is now filling my soul.
Purpose and healing. Jesus made me whole.
