FEELING LOST

There are times life has no meaning
Like a ship that's tempest tossed
Without sail or sturdy rudder
In the darkness can be lost.

What seemed once a sunny future
With a vision bright and clear
Suddenly turns to disappointment
Leading down the path of fear.

Broken dreams can break the spirit
When all hope seems torn away
And the soul cries out in anguish
For some light along the way.

Then a voice speaks through the darkness
As the Captain calms the storm
Bringing back the broken vessel
Till she lands safe on the shore.

Now I find when trouble threatens
To destroy my trust in Him
I just call out to my Captain
To control my life within.
