Who is this?

by Mark.

That day when evening came,
He said to His disciples, 
"Let us go over to the other side."

Leaving the crowd behind,
the took Him along, just as He was,
in the boat.

There were also other boats
with Him.

A furious squall came up, 
and the waves broke over the boat, 
so that it was nearly swamped.

Jesus was in the stern, sleeping
on a cushion. 

The disciples woke Him 
and said to Him, "Teacher,
don't you care if we drown?"

He got up, rebuked the wind and said
to the waves, "Quiet! Be still!"
Then the wind died down 
and it was completely calm.

He said to His disciples,
"Why are you so afraid?
Do you still have no faith?"

They were terrified and asked each other,
"Who is this? Even the wind and the waves
obey Him!"

[mark 4:35-41]

Do you know who this is?
It is Jesus, King of Wind and Wave--
Jesus, King of Earth and Sea,
Jesus, Son of God, Son of Man,
Jesus, loving Friend of Sinners...
