Its beacon of light shines bright
Saving many lives
It is surrounded
By rocky edges of stone
Going out to sea
Waters gently flow
Lapping up to touch the land
Showing its splendor
Clouds softly billow
Against skies of azure blue
Blazing sun burns bright
Without a warning
The once peaceful setting turns
Helpless ships adrift
The waves come crashing
Down with tumultuous verve
Against the vessel
Turbulent Waters
Continually crashing down
Upon the liner
The gale wind batters
Against the craft pitching it
Ahead without choice
Unexpectedly
Feeling lost and terrified
Of what will happen
The sailors have to
Face the fact that they may not
Survive this journey
Suddenly a glow
Is seen in the dark night sky
As a prayer is said
Just as it began
The day starts to dawn once more
A fresh new morning
Will the past repeat
Itself for a second time
Without due warning
If we look ahead
And stay focused on the Lord
We will stay on course
Safe in the harbor
Sheltered from storms of the deep
Rest for weary souls
