Have you ever been on a boat
All secure and safe in the sunshine?
Have you ever been in a storm on a boat
Raging wind, battering rain,
Waves the size of a house
Threatening to smash you
Into a hundred pieces
Pummelling you into the water?

Have you ever called to God
In the middle of a crisis
Or a storm or a fight?
Did his hands hold you firm
And his voice calm the waves?
And when it was done
And the sun shone again
As your feet touched solid ground
Did you whisper “Thank you”?
