Tonights Dream
Tonight I dreamed a dream,
I was lost in a mighty gail;
My ship was torn to pieces,
I lost both my masts and sails
.
I knew my life was over,
surly at sea I would die;
To my family I was lost forever,
oh the tears that fell from my eyes.
So I knelt down on the deck,
as the waves crashed over the rails;
And began to say a little prayer,
Lord I know your word wont fail.
I'm asking you for some peace,
as I am about to die;
Please let my end be quick,
on me please keep your eye.
To my surprise as I arose,
the storm that quickly came,
Had diapered into the night,
my ship and I remained.
Then I woke up in a sweat,
covered from head to toe;
My heart was pounding like a hammer,
my mind racing to and fro.
Then I knelt and said thank you,
for reminding that you care;
Help me not to wait for a disaster,
to talk with you in prayer.
