Rev. Elizabeth Anderson Poet Pastoral

Light In the Storm

The captain of the schooner ship,
Looked at the angry sky,
His ship tossed in the storm,
Not a star to guide her by.

This captian trusted his vessel,
He would ride out the storm,
Then he saw a light,
And the sounding of a fog horn.

The lighthouse sat on a cliff,
Its beam guiding ships to shore,
The vibrating sound could be heard,
Above the ocean's roar.

Jesus is my lighthouse,
I keep moving towards His light,
And when His Spirit speaks to me,
I'm guided through the darkest night.
