When the storms toss you afar

Shipwrecked with a broken sail

There is a King who names all the stars

A prisoner of burdens He will bail.

 

Tell Jesus, tell Him in a prayer

In tears still He will hear

Go close to whisper

All the things causing a stir.

 

There were times I too despaired

And sought the wrong listening ear

Jesus, a friend no one compared

For you, time He will always share.

 

Never think He doesn’t know

Your state of pained unrest

Did you forget He has divine control

O’er the troubled tempest?

 

It takes nothing to have Him near

Just as you are, He sure won’t mind

For since He remains Lord o’er the waves and air

Everlasting peace you will find.
