THIS BOAT CANNOT SINK

Trying all you can to keep your boat afloat
The wind so boisterous against you blow
You want to sing but you can only sigh
It seems from the cradle you've thrown away the paddle
Vulnerable and defenseless you stand on the river of life
Hey fellow comrade before you throw in the towel
A second look i plead you take
The master is on board! oh what a relieve
With him be rest assured this boat cannot sink

The journey for you appears to be without direction
The compass seem to have been lost with your daily struggle
'It is finished' is the only lexicon left in your dictionary
Hard as you try the shore seems unreachable
Several questions all begging for answer
Cascade from your head to the crevices of your heart
Relax! The master is an occupant of the boat
Unequivocally I can hear him echo..."This boat cannot sink"

How I wish for a moment you will just pause to check
If by your labor you've not left him at the harbor
For no doubt in this all important journey of life
He remains an anchor both sure and steadfast
And if by chance he is not in the boat
Invite him I beg of you my friend
For without him a safe landing cannot be guaranteed
But with him I make bold to declare
Surely this boat cannot sink
