From Great Storm to Great Calm

storm at sea

And he said to them, "Why are you afraid, O you of little faith?" Then he rose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. And the men marveled, saying, "What sort of man is this, that even winds and sea obey him?"
Matthew 8:26-27

Churning seas
wave-tossed
My soul reels
I am lost

In the tumult
lightning-lit
fearsome bolts
a storm has hit

Frightened heart
wind-blown
shaken through
I cry out

Little faith
lives within
in Your grace
You calm the din

Waves smooth
soul reclaimed
I look at You
a bit ashamed

Who is this
sea captain
Who calms souls
and brings them to Him?

Jesus, Lord
Savior, King
How I love
the peace You bring!
