Lifeline in the Storm - Poem

Jesus never intended

To sit on the sidelines

Of my shipwrecked life

Allowing the waves

To crush me

Beneath their weight

Drowning in a sea of

Burdens and despair

HE IS

My Savior

A lifeline

In the storm

He wraps that line of hope

Around His mighty waist

And anchors Himself to

God’s amazing Grace

Tossing to and fro

I catch His line of mercy

Crying out:

“Jesus, don’t let go!

Pull me up from this hell below.”

Two arms

Powerful and strong

Raise me up

Higher and higher

Out of danger

Jesus, My Savior

Calls my name

Grasping for breath I look up to see

Two shining eyes of love

Looking down at me.

Daughter, do you trust me?

“Jesus, I’m afraid”

Daughter, do you trust me?

“Jesus, help me trust.”

Daughter, do you trust me?

“Jesus, I trust you.”

Then let go.

"Why Lord?"

Because faith is knowing

I'll catch you and

I’ll never let YOU go
