You Calm My Storm

How calm the day is after

Damaging storms

The might of the waves

Crashed and crushed the shore.

The storm raged in anger

You Lord are in the power

Of the oceans, Your voice is

Treasure from the deep

For I heard You when

My mind was at war with myself.

You took me from the

Deep waves and placed me at

Your feet, Your spirit breathed

New life into me and restored

Me to new beginnings.

Your hand is the one that guides

Me all my days.

****************

Master of the Ship

I see your beacon ahead of me Lord,

Take me from this abyss.

The sea is vast, and the wind is gathering

Pace and my ship is so small.

Take the helm Lord and steer I pray

As the sea has taken a hold of me, my

Life is in turmoil and I can hardly see

The way, fear grips my heart.

I am by your beacon Lord,

You have taken me from the destruction

Of rough waters to the calm of the harbour

And anchored me to a life anew.

For you are the Master of the ship and

I am your follower to my journeys end.
