Reverse

What manner of man is this that even the sea and wind obey For Jesus was asleep in the boat with the Apostles on that day When suddenly the distress in these experienced fisherman was clear For the sea so quickly whipped into a tempest filling these men with fear Never seeing such wrath and fury they came to the Lord with this And in this the Lord was remiss in saying know you not to even worry But then the Lord soon arose and He rebuked the winds and the sea What manner of man is this we see as where once fear was now faith shows Reaching Gergesenes Jesus was met by two possessed by evil Jesus' Presence tormented both for they certainly knew of God's Will Asking that Jesus cast them out into a grazing herd in the distance Jesus said go as the herd jumped into the sea, the herders telling everyone hence And so the people all met and decided that this Jesus must leave For their profit they couldn't retrieve but knew better than to beset So they told Him He had to go that He could not stay on their coast In trying to be a good host we should all just allow His Light to glow
