MISSING PART
presence of all the watch was to fall on my knees and humbly and heartily thank God that my life was brought back from the dead. No one mocked; the men all stood in respectful silence, feeling that I was doing that which it was right to do.
The Lord had said, “Call upon Me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify Me” (Psa. 50:15). And since then I have always prayed; my prayers have been to the One who was out upon the wild waters that night with me and whose loving, pitying hand snatched me from water and from fire and has led me safely home. I was not saved only from the sea that night; I was saved from going into the “blackness of darkness forever,” and death has no more terrors for me. I know my Savior!
“Out of the depths have I cried unto Thee, O Lord” (Psa. 130:1).
