We struggled with the oars, we rowed so hard for the wind was in our face;
Must have been around three AM and we were stranded in the same place:
An even more concern, we must have been turned, from the fury of the wind and the waves;
Someone shouted who goes there, it’s a ghost from long lost days; And we heard:
( Chorus ) ( Be of good cheer, it is I , be thou not afraid: I said;
Lord if it’s you, let me walk the water too, only by His hand I was saved.
He boarded the ship and the wind lied down, we were so amazed;
The only words to describe His wonder are pure amazing Grace:)
stanza 2>
I remembered today on the shore, How did it slip my memory;
With just two fish and five loaves of bread, He fed five thousand families:
I thought my Lord, we get this ship to shore, there’s nothing I wont do for thee;
For surely you are the Son of God, and truly now I believe:

( Rock Pace Slows) refrain
I was so lost, oh drifting out to sea, oh such a cost, my Lord payed for me;
I was grasping for a breath, I knew would be my last, but one touch of His hand:
Oh my emptiness it passed, when He said:
(Chorus) Be of good cheer, it is I be thou not afraid; I said;
Lord if it’s you let me walk the water too, only by His hand I was saved:
He boarded the ship, and the wind died down, and we were so amazed;
The only words to describe His wonder are sweet amazing Grace.

stanza 3>
Now if you’re sinking fast, in an ocean so vast, all you see are deep and blue;
And everyone you meet seem to add to your defeat, and they steal the last hope from you:
Now it wont be long, until your breath is gone, I must admit it is true;
Or, you could sink to your knees, and cry Lord, I believe, and He’ll say the same words to you;
(chorus) ( Be of good cheer, it is I, be thou not afraid:
Lord if it’s you let me walk the water too, only by His hand you’ll be saved:
He’ll board your sinking ship and the wind will die down, and you’ll be so amazed;
The only words to describe his wonder, are pure amazing Grace: )
(repeat chorus )
