I AM PETER

I am walking with great trembling

On these waves my feet afloat

Every step – excruciating

But I look to You, I look to You

The raging sounds are deafening

Cold winds slapping my face

But blinking provokes more terror

So let me look to You, look to You

Oh how cold it is, my Savior

All my muscles have gone stiff

With all might, I cut off other senses

Til none is left but You to see

Let these eyes stare upon Yours

In coldness my arms outstretched

Please reach out to me as I do to You

Don’t let me drown, don’t let me sink

Oh my Father, oh my Savior

One word from You, the storms can cease

But just be my ocean, be these waves

Be my calm, Lord, be my peace
