Storms of Life
The stormy seas of life
Wages battle against the turmoil and strife
In a whirl or in an ebb
A rip tide seems to be in my head
Rough waters against the jagged edge
Hoping there are calmer seas ahead
A turbulent wave or two
Rocks the boat gently to and fro
The waves beat against the shore
Waters be at peace we want no more
Be calm be gentle in my mind
Leave the rough waters behind
Lap gently upon the sand
Feel the smooth touch upon thy hand
Sands of time run all day
From here to eternity they say
