When Jesus Speaks Peace Lyrics & Chords

By The Ruppes

Verse 1

(C)Oftentimes I've wondered,

(F)even in my darkest (G)hours,

(C)Would His faithful ears still (F)harken,

to my (Am)needs and my de(G)sires.

Then I (C)hear His voice so tender,

(F)speaking (Am)softly in my (F)ear;

I kneel down and (Am)pray in my secret place

and I (G)know He will hear. (F)He is always (F)near,



Chorus

(C)When He (G)speaks (C)peace

the raging storm must (F)die,

(C)hope becomes new life;

When He whispers,

everything (Dm)will be al(G)right.

When He (C)speaks peace

the dark night (F)slips away,

like the breaking (C)of the day;

When Jesus speaks peace. (F)



Verse 2

When my friends have failed me, and I'm standing all alone;

When my spirit is discouraged, and I feel all hope is gone,

There's no need to be disheartened, for I have a Friend who cares.

When my faith becomes weak, I can kneel at His feet, and my burdens He bears.

He is always there.



Chorus

When He speaks peace

the raging storm must die,

hope becomes new life;

When He whispers,

everything (Dm)will be al(G)right.

When He (C)speaks peace

the dark night (F)slips away,

like the breaking (C)of the day;

When Jesus speaks peace. (F)



Bridge

(Bb)I feel the (F)dark clouds gather 'round (C)me,

(Bb)and I don't (F)seem to under(C)stand.

And then I (F)feel His (C)presence go before me,

and I (F)know (Am)He's holding to my (G)hand
