Still In The Storm He Abides Poem by Mary Angela Douglas

Isaiah 43: 2

I stood still when the Wave went over
but You were even stiller.
I cannot hold onto the clouds I cried

when the skies lowered
but You said deep inside,
you will.

now the sea is glass.
all this and more has come to pass
beyond what anyone bargained for.

Yet You remain.
the clouds, and rain.
and we could all be washed overboard

again
with or without our friends
we know we know

we remember You.
You flow under the waters too.
