A Fisherman's Prayer

When storm gales blow and shake my soul

And I am lost at sea,

Then comes a light that shines so bright

A beacon sent to me

 

When tattered sails are useless

And Darkness covers me,

An unseen hand takes o’er the helm

And steers me round alee.

 

And as the first star of the night

Shines through so vividly,

My bounty lies in His good Grace

Blessed by the Trinity.

I love what you express and the manner in which you have expressed it, Leann - great flow, rhythm and rhyme.



From me:



Sailors' Lullaby



"When the sun sets scarlet

And the moon rises gold

The sea sparkles silver

And sings a sleepy song."



Thanks for sharing your gift. Love and best wishes to you,



Regis

First star of the night. The north star, never leaves you lost and always takes you to the right place if you follow it. It will never leave a boater or fisherman behind and us too. We need to seek it and follow it to wherever it brings us too. That is home again to our lives.
