Floating through the ocean of life a
Tale at times to be a ferocious Journey through a turbulent current
Filled with pain and strife
Mariners who I thought would always
Be with me have not survived
Times of weakness my heart wanders and loses faith
That one day I too will be where they have arrived
The Seafarer is who I became
Feeling lost in the choppiness of life's shifting ocean
The waves swell through the night
To and fro with immense commotion
Realization hits me, I have no control,
I fall to my knees and give The Lord my devotion
Waking after outlasting the tumultuous waves
Sun glistening, oceanic seabirds squawking in praise
A restful, serene state
The stream now has become a quiet, vision of peacefulness
Preparation to guide me through life's immeasurable distress
Next time I know I will never again be alone
He is always with me
Through the tempestuous waters
To calm my storms

Floating through the ocean of life a
Tale at times to be a ferocious Journey through a turbulent current
Filled with pain and strife
Mariners who I thought would always
Be with me have not survived
Times of weakness my heart wanders and loses faith
That one day I too will be where they have arrived
The Seafarer is who I became
Feeling lost in the choppiness of life's shifting ocean
The waves swell through the night
To and fro with immense commotion
Realization hits me, I have no control,
I fall to my knees and give The Lord my devotion
Waking after outlasting the tumultuous waves
Sun glistening, oceanic seabirds squawking in praise
A restful, serene state
The stream now has become a quiet, vision of peacefulness
Preparation to guide me through life's immeasurable distress
Next time I know I will never again be alone
He is always with me
Through the tempestuous waters
To calm my storms
