Twelve disciples in a boat
Doubting it would float
Master had left them alone
Drifting the seas in a storm
Then they saw a figure
Slowly getting bigger
A spirit, they fear
but that's not what they hear
Jesus, walking on water
Saying "Have faith, don't falter."
Peter leaps to his feet
"If it be thou, me bid!"
The boat rolled from side to side
The wind howled hard
"Come," beckoned Jesus
Peter focused his eyes on Christ
Stepped out into the unknown
He with his faith alone
One step, then two
Amazed at what he could do
But the waves and wind made him shake
Made his faith quake
His feet slipped under the water's surface
Suddenly fear struck; he was lost
He was being swallowed by the sea
"Jesus!" he cried, "Save me!"
Jesus caught him, "Why did you doubt?"
Anything is possible with God.
Even today, Jesus, Master of the Sea,
Is standing there, helping me.
