“It Is I”
“And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were troubled … But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid” (Matthew 14:26-27).
The wind blew strong, the waves beat high,
The disciples thought they’d surely die;
Fear gripped their hearts, they rowed and toiled,
But all their efforts were recoiled.
Then on the water Jesus walked,
To calm their fears, with them He talked:
Said, “It is I; be not afraid.”
Then all their fears to rest were laid.
Then Peter walked on water too,
Although he sunk, he also knew,
Just where to turn, to whom to cry,
And found his Savior, ever nigh.
In every storm, Jesus is there,
To speak with comfort, love, and care;
We need not fear, His peace is ours,
Even in life’s most stormy hours.
