PEACE, BE STILL
by vincent lyons "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." I am a Christian who belongs to a home church in Sydney, Australia. I am Irish by birth and desire to further the gospel of Christ by my life and my poetry.
