from the sea
20090902
Upside down,
What wall is up?
What course is to stay?
or ship to captain?
Do the dragons beneath
threaten above the waves?
God be my anchor,
to point the way through the rising
and falling of this journey.
If the water be flames
then carry me away. What lodging will He bear me?
What haven should berth my home?
My course is waves
but my Captain pilots the stars.
His path is always true, though tempest roar
and dragons pump the waves.
Even when the water towers into flames
and foam overtakes the decks.
His unwavering hand holds faithful.
His love fetches the lost from the seas.
