I'm Being Tested

I'm being tested . . .
I can see the angry sea
and any moment now
it could crash down on me.

If I doubt ~ I might sink,
but with faith I will swim
all I need to do . . .
is to keep my eyes on Him.

Jesus is on the other side,
of this sea that is raging
and my patience and belief
He's measuring and gauging.

The waves are coming,
I can sense their future fear
but I know that in any storm
my Savior is always near.

I'll not drown in these waters,
or be swept into the deep
for Jesus promises to protect
all of His precious little sheep.

I'm being tested . . .
I can see the angry sea
but I will not panic
I'll let my faith work for me.

James 1:3
King James Version

"Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience."
