The Tide Was Rough
I thank thee lord for lifting us in your arms when the tide was rough
Tidal waves swept away our loved ones to your celestial heavens
I thank thee lord for lifting us in your arms when the tide was rough
You helped us to face the scouring realities by making us tough
Life could have been worse, but you saved us from its denizens
Fill my cup with more strength for I know the challenges are never enough
I thank thee lord for lifting us in your arms when the tide was rough
