"And there came down a storm of wind on the lake, and they were filled with water, and were in jeopardy. And they came to Him... Then He arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm. And He said unto them, Where is your faith?" (Luke 8:22-23-25).
It's better to be in jeopardy
With Jesus our Lord being here
Than living with ungodly apathy,
As judgment is yet drawing near.
It's better to hear the proper reproof
Of Christ who will question our doubt
Than carelessly standing with sinners aloof,
Indifferent to how things turn out.
It's better, far better, to be with the Lord,
Whether in peace or in dangerous strife,
Than all that this world can vainly afford
In all of its false assurance in life.
