Safe Harbor
The skies were dark the other day My compass had lost true North I turned to face the wind away Searched the horizon and set my course A lighthouse blinks off in the distance As blasts of wind break the waters anew And doubt creeps into my weary conscience Yet will and word with faith stay true. And so my ship cuts through the ocean With gusts and swell it shudders and rolls My soul, it bursts with relief and emotion As I pass the shadows and beyond the shoals. At last some sunlight breaks through the shroud With the calming waters of the harbor in view I sail past the breakers and the sun through the clouds As the dark skies and waters turn bright and blue. The storm is behind me and fading fast Tears rise up as strife fades into the past The docks draw closer with help standing ready With Joy, I realize my ship sailed steady. ©️ 2024, Accountec, LLC
