“Story Of A Storm”

-Lightning flashing

-Thunder crashing

-The waves are coming in

-Quickly sinking

-Fear is raging

-My heart feels like it’s going under

Through the darkness there comes a light

A voice calls to me through the night

From this ship I cannot see clearly

Do I dare to trust what I feel

The storm cannot hide the light I see

I know there’s only one way to know if it’s real

-Is it You Lord

-Could it be

-I want so much to be with You

-Lord I need You

-Call me to where You are

-Raise me to higher place

The voice I could never forget

Calling to me, and yet…

Oh Lord I come to You

Under my feet is the very thing that sought to consume me

The storm cannot hide the light I see

I come to The One who calls me to be

-Walking on the water

-I see Your face

-But then I drop my gaze

-Falling so fast

-The water takes me

-“This must be my time to die”

Suddenly, You take my hand

I look to find – again I stand

You take me back to my ship and calm the storm

You go with me and touch the ones on the other shore

In you I find all I need

I walk with You – You guide me – I never need to ask for more
