Encouragement

---

Many times when we are in a test
we do wonder, what we should do
We shift about, trying to see our way out
failing to wait, and let God bring us through

We began to try and fix it ourselves
forgetting to leave, the ship in his hands
For when our sights are on, the rising waves
it takes our focus, off dry land

Not realizing that we will reach the shore
believing that God is in control
For he is the one, who is stirring us through
and our lives in his hands he holds

You see this ship was purchased by his blood
so why would he abandon us
seeing all things are working for our good
and on his word, we can rely on and trust

Now don't jump the ship, when troubles rise
don't bail out when the going gets tough
Hold on to faith and ride it on out
even when, it may get a little rough

Our Savior has braved the waters before
and has stood every storm that came
Now he is banking on us, to hang on in there
and at the end, of the run, we will gain

So strap yourselves in and buckle down in his word
send fear and doubt, on it's way
For the ship is secured, by the power in his name
and we can use it, whenever we pray
