A few lines from "Saved From The Lonely Sea ":
"There are times when life is easy
Days pass under sun-filled sky
When sadness is a distant thought
That rarely passes by
Yet other times we're overcome
By waves of cruelty
Sadness and grief wash over us
In a dark and lonely sea
Facing hard things we cannot accept
We are left only to decide
Whether to seek help from God
Or struggle alone in churning tide
For some of us...it's hard to cry out
To a Being we've hardly known
Why would God choose to help us
Who believed we could handle things alone?
And even if we wanted to
Ask the Lord to come to our side
For some...we're angry God wouldn't stop the waves
Didn't use His power to rebuke the tide
And for others...it's just difficult
For us to have faith to believe
That God can actually bind up our hearts
Heal our deepest wounds that bleed
But in our moments of dark, lonely pain
If we'll just ask Him to see us through
In the very moment we call upon God..."
