By George Thurlow
In the midst of struggle,
Overwhelmed on every hand,
Look up and see the Master
Calling "Here I am".
When life gets rough and stormy
And you're losing strength and will,
Christ will calm your troubled sea
Commanding "peace be still".
If afflicted by disease and pain
Fearing that you might die,
Oh hear Jehovah Rapha state
"Be not afraid, tis I".
He is our very present help
For all trouble in our midst,
Coming to uphold us
Strengthen and assist.
Mark 6:47-50
47 And when even was come, the ship was in the midst of the sea, and he alone on the land.
48 And he saw them toiling in rowing; for the wind was contrary unto them: and about the fourth watch of the night he cometh unto them, walking upon the sea, and would have passed by them.
49 But when they saw him walking upon the sea, they supposed it had been a spirit, and cried out:
50 For they all saw him, and were troubled. And immediately he talked with them, and saith unto them, Be of good cheer: it is I; be not afraid.
