In these times of restlessness

In these times of restlessness

In these times of uncertainty

When all we trusted has become

But sand and we sink helplessly

Reaching out

a Rock we hold.

He is still and unshakable.

Eternally and silently

He waited for us with love untold.

How we think we have control

When all things go predictably

But when waves crash

when storm winds blast

We see our human frailty.

Then He’s always there to say

“It is I

do not be afraid.”

It’s up to us to take Him in

Our boats

our lives

for Him e’er to stay.

So that’s why we call

“O Lord Jesus!”

Desper’tely for peace inside

And peace He gives

A peace beyond understanding.

And still then we call

“O Lord Jesus!”

Just to find the peace supplied

Is Christ Himself resting in our being.
