Philippians 4:6-7 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
[7] And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
There are some precious promises that can be ours if we can come to the place where we refuse to allow worry to be our master. We can learn to bring our needs to him.
We are promised His peace — tranquility of the soul, where we are calm in the heart and mind despite the fact that turmoil and strife are raging around us.
It’s a mysterious thing, but it’s God’s gift to those who will trust in Him “in everything”.
He whispers sweet peace to me.

“Sometimes when misgivings darken the day, — And faith's light I cannot see; — I ask my dear Lord to brighten the way, — He whispers sweet peace to me.
CHORUS
“He whispers sweet peace to me, — He whispers sweet peace to me, — When I am cast down in spirit and soul, — He whispers sweet peace to me.
“I could not go on without Him I know,
This world would o'er whelm my soul;
For I could not see the right way to go,
When temptations o'er me roll.
“I trust Him thru faith, by faith hold His hand, And Some-times my faith is weak; And then when I ask Him to take command, it seems that I hear Him speak.
CHORUS
“He whispers sweet peace to me, — He whispers sweet peace to me, — When I am cast down in spirit and soul, — He whispers sweet peace to me.
“He speaks in a still, small voice we are told,
A voice that dispels all fear;
And when I'm in doubt, or troubled in soul,
That still, small voice I can hear.
CHORUS
“He whispers sweet peace to me, — He whispers sweet peace to me, — When I am cast down in spirit and soul, — He whispers sweet peace to me.
