August 26 & 27

In the midst of the storm,
  in the raging of the sea,
when I need someone to lean on,
depending on You is easy.

When I'm feeling all alone
  and there's nowhere else to turn,
when I feel I can't go on,
that's the time I know I'll learn.

It's easy to rely on You
  when the road ahead is steep,
when I have no other option
  but to trust in You and leap.

But when the water's smooth and tranquil
  and I'm floating right along,
please help me to remember
  You're the reason for my song.

You're the source of all my blessings,
  the provider of my peace.
It's so easy to forget this
  when  it seems I need You least.

I will trust You on the mountaintop,
  and praise You in the waste.
I will honor You with all I am,
  no matter what I face.

No matter what each day brings,
  whether good or whether bad,
  no matter if I'm happy,
  no matter if I'm sad,

I don't deserve this grace You give.
  I don't deserve this peace.
But I will go on trying,
  I will go on striving
  to honor You and trust You.
I will go on praising You.
  Never will I cease!
