Find in Them Your Comfort

 Sailors seldom sail without a sea, of course

  To them, it's land beneath their feet

They view the ground as unstable liquid

  While the waters are concrete


They call the waves their mountains

  That's all they want to climb

The challenges of sea life

  To them, bring but peace of mind


Go ahead and bring them here to shore

  And see just what they'll do

They'll be staring back out to sea

  Before the day is thru


Now, if you sail the seas of life

  You've got to change your thoughts

Find in those billowing waves your comfort

  Think of them as what they're not


In the tossing of the seas of life

  Find in them your home

In the waves that seem to swallow

  Find but comfort in their foam
