Jesus calms the Storm (YB No 127)


Teachings of this great Jewish sageCan challenge, guide, confront, engage;Many a gem is there to findIf we but open up our mind. Calming the storm on Galilee –What can this mean for you and me?Can we believe when faced with harmWe will find strength remaining calm? Shouting at Jesus, “Don’t you care!?”They yelled in panic, fear, despair;Likewise, when desperate, we might beUntamed and act outrageously. Jesus awoke; with gentle skillHe calmed the scene with “Peace be still.”His teachings, for us, can allayThe stress and tensions of each day. Peace is the essence of this tale;his peace gives strength when we feel frail;Peace is the message we can hear;This is the peace that stills our fear.
