Cover art for Be Still lyrics by Fray, The

I think this song has religious meaning to it. The Fray's band members are christians.

"When darkness comes upon you and colors you with fear and shame Be still and know that I am with you And I will say your name." - Darkness is things like fear and shame in the bible. God tells us not to worry though because he is always with us. He knows our name, he knows every cell of our bodies. Be still meaning be calm or be okay because I am with you.

"If terror falls upon your bed And sleep no longer comes Remember all the words I said Be still, be still, and know." - Terror is just more darkness. Hard times. Remember the words that God has said. He will always be with you.

"And when you go through the valley and the shadow comes down from the hill If morning never comes to be Be still, be still, be still" - Psalm 23:4 "Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me."

"If you forget the way to go And lose where you came from If no one is standing beside you Be still and know I am" God will never leave us nor forsake us even when we feel like there is nobody else. He is always there to guide and comfort us.

Even though I think the same thing, I still love how you put this! This is one of my favorite songs!!!
