Oh ye of little faith Walk forth with ease upon the great ocean Though the seas may roar And the oceanic expanse rage You will remain afloat For you command a vessel that shall never be overturned nor unsteadied You will remain afloat Lightning may flash Illuminating the heavens above Sending rolling thunder below Resounding, trembling Though overcome with fear Ascend Prevail Lead Sing!
