PEACE, BE STILL

"Let us cross to the other side"
Christ speaks the Word and it will be;
His will can never be defied
By rushing wind or raging sea.

In tranquil peace He sleeps below,
Oblivious to fear and dread;
The seas may swell, the gale may blow;
Can these prevent what Christ has said?

"Master, we perish", they cry out,
As fear and panic grips their souls;
"Lord, save us", His disciples shout;
"Where is your faith" the Master scolds.

The wind and sea obey His Word;
At His command their ragings cease;
They recognise Who is their Lord;
He speaks to them; they rest in peace.

Don't be tossed in a sea of doubt;
All Christ has said will be fulfilled;
Though storms be raging all about,
Put your faith in Him---"Peace, be still".

Hello Vince, I love this poem and also The Man in the Tree. It's wonderful to retell these simple Bible accounts of real people and real events and then make application to us all. Well done! I especially like the last verse of Peace, Be Still. Linda

Simple faith in the Lord. Very nicely done. I can hear the hymn in my head.
