He asked his disciples to have a boat ready.
To keep him from being crushed.
On our road he keeps us steady.
By his mercy we feel touched.

He had cured so many.
That all who were afflicted were crowding forward.
Even we who have plenty.

Need his aid for nothing is straightforward.

We try to rush forward around him.

Sometimes he seems far away in his boat.

Even below the horizon’s rim.

And we following, can barely keep

afloat.

We can only say a prayer.

Seeking truth layer by layer.

…..

We try to find Christ

But then are we too many

We hope surely not
