Sorry I’m a little behind! This week’s is a revison of one I wrote some time ago. As always, I hope you enjoy, and please critique. Also, if you’ve written any poetry you’d like to post, feel free! This thread it’s just a showcase for my material. I would like to see what you have too. 🙂
Captain of Me
The storm is raging
The waves are caging
There’s no way I can stay afloat
I’m alone in my little boat
I need someone who can be
Captain and navigate this seaI hear You calling
Through wind’s a squalling
Call me, I will come take the helm
I will guide out of waves that whelm
Just let me have the control
I’ll be the Captain of your soul I cry for lifeline
There’s no way I can stay alive
I need Him divine
I will drown if life takes a diveLord, be Captain of me tonight
You will be faithful
Storms might strengthen and may affright
I may be woeful
Lord, Your hands are able to steer
Through these tides to Your sturdy pier
Lord, be Captain of me tonightI surrender to
Him who needs no crew
To survive this stormy ordeal
Put Your hand on this broken wheel
I need You to ever be
Captain and navigate this seaYou will pilot me
Safe to heaven’s shore
You will pilot me
You I will adore
Lord, my Captain forevermore
