O that water on which you walked
became solid ground, sprouting faith.
Filled with hope, trusting in the way,
embracing light and life you give.

Yet, shadows billow as they may,
threatening clouds swirling around.
Acting big, but so very small,
so dull and dense, missing the point.

Replace the darkness in our midst.
Revive good sense that’s been dismissed.
Protect and guide all souls to you,
doing the good you’d have them do.

Do not let your hearts be troubled.
You have faith in God; have faith also in me. – John 14:1
