Our Faith

Our faith in God is easy when the
Waters 'round are stilled,
When the voyage undertaken finds
Our dreams and hopes fulfilled.

But holding on to God is hard
When wrestling with our doubt,
And when the storms are fiercest,
And our boat is tossed about.

It's then our faith is shaken,
When the Master's sound asleep,
Not knowing we are sinking, and
The waters 'round are deep.

We wonder then how He, Who's Lord
Of all the land and sea,
Could seem to be so unaware
Of our catastrophe.

It's when our faith seems weakest,
God will calm the sea and soul
And when we are most broken that
He'll touch, and make us whole.
