It Is I

NS800
1
In the darkness of the night,
Sailing on a stormy ocean,
With no hope or peace in sight,
On a churning, gloomy sea.
Amidst the wind and waves, what do I see?
It’s a Man who walks above the waves to me.
And He said,
 
“It is I.
It is I. Don’t be afraid.
Let Me in—
To your boat, I’ll calm the waves.
I can be in you
A harbor, warm and safe.
Just open up your heart.
I am the way.”
2
All the troubles in my life
Make me feel like I’m surrounded,
Countless problems, pain, and strife,
Come to rob my soul of peace.
I’m worn and weary fighting off the grief.
Is there no one who my suffering can relieve?
The Lord says,
 
“It is I.
It is I. Don’t be afraid.
Let Me in—
To your boat, I’ll calm the waves.
I can be in you
A harbor, warm and safe.
Just open up your heart.
I am the way.”
3
Jesus is the Son of God,
Come as man, full of compassion.
Crucified upon a cross,
He bore all your sins away.
His life subdues the power of the grave.
Will you let Him soothe your aching heart today?
Then He’ll say,
 
“It is I.
It is I. Don’t be afraid.
Just believe,
Call My name and you’ll be saved.”
Oh Lord Jesus,
You’re the One I need today.
I let You in my heart,
Come in to stay.

“It is I.

It is I. Don’t be afraid.

Let Me in,

To your boat, I’ll calm the waves.

I can be in you

A harbor, warm and safe.

Just open up your heart.

I am the way. ”
