We've got water to walk on

A storm is brewing
It's coming to a head.
all of society is in danger 
but by the Spirit we will be led
the blustering winds of bigotry are fierce 
causing racial isolation
the hurricanes of hate are howling 
causing economic desolation
the impact will be monumental 
affecting everyone at hand
the tornadoes of Injustice are swirling 
but on the promises of God we will stand.
we've got water to walk on 
in every aspect of our lives
but we need to not be doubtful
like Peter was before Christ
we've got water to walk on
we just need to comprehend 
that Jesus will catch us 
and lift us up again and again

the Divine authority of Jesus 
is the incarnate word 
and it matters not from any man 
what you have heard 
the Holy Communion, the holistic Resurrection 
and the re-emergence of our Lord Christ 
has given us the means 
to walk on the raging waters of life

the boat depicted despair and our emotions
the Disciples where the church 
full of believers and devotion 
yet the sea was the revelation and the resolution
and Jesus walking on that water was the divine conclusion

so be not afeard as you walk on the waters of life
be of good courage in the midst of your strife.
just never be afraid of an unknown destiny 
when you have a known God assuring you the victory
so get out of the boat and do not allow others 
to hold you back. 
Get out of your comfort zone, move towards Jesus, 
just stay on track 
and don't let the silence nor the advice
of so-called friends
stop you from obeying the instructions 
that to you, God did send

have no doubts and be confident 
of your faith in the Lord God 
have total trust in Him 
from the deaths of your heart 
so don't hesitate, don't be skeptical 
as the turbulent waters of life will always appear 
and yes, you can walk on it 
if you possess a spirit of no fear
yes, many storms will come 
at any given point in your life 
but you've got water to walk on 
when you obey with courage
and trust in Christ
