VERSE 1:
ONCE THE LORD WAS IN A SHIP WITH HIS DISCIPLES,
STORMY WINDS TOSSED THEM ABOUT ON RAGING SEAS,
IN GREAT FEAR THEY WOKE THE LORD, FOR HE WAS SLEEPING,
AND WITH A WORD, HE CALMED THE STORM AND GAVE THEM PEACE.

CHORUS:
WHEN YOU PRAY TO THE LORD FOR SWEET DELIV'RENCE,
WHILE YOU'RE DRIFTING ON AN ANGRY FOAMING SEA,
THE LORD MAY NOT CALM THE ROARING TEMPEST 'ROUND YOU,
BUT HE WILL CALM THE RAGING STORM INSIDE OF THEE.

VERSE 2:
IN THE WORLD YOU SHALL HAVE TRIBULATION,
BUT THE LORD WILL GIVE YOU PEACE WHAT E'ER BETIDE,
WHEN THE STORMY TEMPEST RAGES ALL AROUND YOU,
JUST SAY A PRAYER AND YOU'LL FIND JESUS BY YOUR SIDE.

(CHORUS)
