His Presence

I am safer in the storms, With Christ as my anchor, Than in the still waters, With the arm of flesh as the anchor. I hope in the steadfast Rock of Ages, With all confidence I trust in him, Than in the sinking sand of time, Where hope ends in disappointment. I resolutely made the utmost sacrifice, Within and without yielding all to Christ, That he invest me with value, Where I, in his stead do serve. I will never fear the tempest, With Christ in my vessel, The wildest tumult is under control, Waves as ministers bring Christ to me, I, overwhelmed by life's biollows, When I come to my wits end then, My Saviour's power ends the journey, When man's strength is exhausted.
