The Storm

Matthew 14: 22-33

22     And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a ship, and to go before him unto the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.
23     And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone.
24     But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary.
25     And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea.
26     And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.
27     But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.
28     And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water.
29     And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.
30     But when he was the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.
31    And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?
32    And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased.
33    Then they that were in the ship came and worshipped him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God.

Storm by Lifehouse
How long have I 
Been in this storm 
So overwhelmed by the ocean's shapeless form 
Water's getting harder to tread 
With these waves crashing over my head 

If I could just see you 
Everything will be alright 
If I'd see you 
The storminess will turn to light 

And I will walk on water 
And you will catch me if I fall 
And I will get lost into your eyes 
And everything will be alright 
And everything will be alright 

I know you didn't 
Bring me out here to drown 
So why am I 10 feet under and upside down 
Barely surviving has become my purpose 
Cause I'm so used to living underneath the surface 

If I could just see you 
Everything will be alright 
If I could just see you 
This darkness will turn to light 

And I will walk on water 
And you will catch me if I fall 
And I will get lost into your eyes 
And everything will be alright 

And I will walk on water 
You will catch me if I fall 
And I will get lost into your eyes 
And everything will be alright 
I know everything is alright 
Everything's alright 


See the connection yet?
