I sat on the beach one day and waited,
All my hopes of happiness were drowned.
I wondered why I ought to go on living,
Success and I could find no common ground.
Then as I contemplated my next action,
The sea roared back to me with its mighty sound:
“Wait my friend, it’s not yet time to die.
You’ll be glad, my friend, if you let this day go by.
There’s someone who created me,
He’ll calm your storms and set you free.
He’s the Man who walked on my waters at Galilee
Two thousand and nine years ago,
He lives today and His love will set you free.
“At times the clouds are dark above my waters,
Waves rise up and roll furiously.
But summer comes and once again it’s peaceful,
The Lord of all creation controls me.
He waits for you with open arms of acceptance,
He’ll fight your battles and calm your stormy sea.”
Suddenly my Savior stood before me!
In brilliant light and radiant as could be.
He said, “Come to me and cast away your burdens,
I bore them long ago on Calvary.”
So I ran into His open arms of acceptance,
And now I walk in peace and liberty!
