Portrait of John Newton John Newton A Word from JESUS calms the sea

Peter walking upon the water by John Newton
A Word from JESUS calms the sea, The stormy wind controls; And gives repose and liberty To tempest-tossed souls.
To Peter on the waves he came, And gave him instant peace; Thus he to me revealed his name, And bid my sorrows cease.
Then filled with wonder, joy and love, Peter's request was mine; LORD, call me down, I long to prove That I am wholly thine.
Unmoved at all I have to meet On life's tempestuous sea; Hard, shall be easy; bitter, sweet, So I may follow thee.
