Lyrics
I find it’s always the lie that is loudest
I know the One with the power
Is never the one who is shoutin’, shoutin’
I lean in, I know that I need to listen
Through all of the thunder, You whisper
Even in doubt, You are with me, with me
Like a love song that I’ve always known
Your word hits me deep inside my soul
When You speak
I’m found in the sound of peace, be still
The wind and the waves bow to Your will
You drown my fear with a love more real
Than anything, anything I feel
When You speak
When You speak
I know You’re not the God of confusion
Why do I feel like I’m losin’
My mind, every time?
I can’t see what You’re doin’
Like a love song that I’ve always known
Your word hits me deep inside my soul
When You speak
I’m found in the sound of peace, be still
The wind and the waves bow to Your will
You drown my fear with a love more real
Than anything, anything I feel
When You speak
When You speak
It’s a holy melody
Set in Heaven’s perfect key
Redemption’s frequency
Healing me, healing me
It’s the Father whispering
Mercy over every need
Breaking through and breaking free
Healing me, it’s healing me
When You speak
When You speak
When You speak
I’m found in the sound of peace, be still
The wind and the waves bow to Your will
You drown my fear with a love more real (love more real)
Than anything, anything I feel
When You speak
When You speak
When You speak
(When You speak, when You speak)

About This Song
"I wrote this song in the middle of all the uncertainty happening. I was feeling overwhelmed, confused, and not at peace. I felt the battle in my mind constantly. I kept saying to myself, 'I can't wait to get through this' and God spoke to my heart and said, 'Jeremy, I want this to get through to you. I realized that all those lies from the enemy seemed to be the loudest in my mind, but then I realized that they had no real power when I lay them at the feet of Jesus. My Savior breaks through the noise with His peace and hope that we so desperately need. When He speaks, mountains can move and fear is traded for peace. Chains can be broken, and lies are drowned out." -Jeremy Camp
Jeremy Camp used this verse for inspiration for this song.
John 6:63; "The Spirit alone gives eternal life. Human effort accomplishes nothing. And the very words I have spoken to you are spirit and life."
