“God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in times of trouble. Therefore we will not be afraid, though the earth give way and the mountains fall in to the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and rage and the mountains quake with violence.” (Psalm 46:1-3)

I walked along a weary road,

’twas paved with rocks and thorns,

The sun was dark and clouds hung o’er

As I braced to face the storm;

My Father said, “Be not afraid,”

For I will hold your hand,

Take comfort in the thought, my child,

That I am in command.

I made the rain,

I made the wind,

I made the lightning , too;

So while we’re walking hand in hand

My peace will comfort you.

You need not fear the storms of life,

For surely they will come;

But rest assured

You’ll walk secure,

I’ll guide you safely home.
