‘It hit you without any warning
The storm of your life had begun
Seeing no hope in the distance
You’re frightened and nowhere to run
By now your vessel is filling
And you’re thinking that you’ll surely drown
You cried out for help from the Savior
And you know you can’t give up now.
Because you’ve prayed all night
Because you’ve held on with all of your might
Child, your cries have awoken the Master
Oh, He knows your voice
Lift your hands, it’s time to rejoice
Child, your cries have awoken the Master
You’re up there worried that He’s fast asleep
The wind’s are so deadly
The water’s so deep
But try to be patient
‘Cause soon He’ll bring peace
Just one word from His voice and it all must cease.
Because you’ve prayed all night
‘Cause you’ve held on with all of your might
Child, your cries have awoken the Master
Oh, He knows your voice
Lift your hands, it’s time to rejoice
Child, your cries have awoken the Master.’ MKB
