A Broken Oar
There is a special calm when you step upon the shore...
If the night was dark and you had only one oar.
There are times on life's lake when the storms blow and rage...
It can happen in our youth and even old in old age.
Things can be peaceful and quite then suddenly the waves appear...
And your heart becomes instantly gripped in fear.
The panic button is out of reach...
Then suddenly Jesus says, " Relax my child and let Me teach."
There is a special calm when you step upon the shore...
Especially if the night was dark and you had a broken oar.
