When pain waits in silence

When hunger is patient

When tears wallow in drought

When the sea of the soul is still

Serenity finds expression in God.

 

When life is drained but alive

When frailty blossom in gloom

When hope is scarce and faith as fig tree stands

When the sea of the soul is still

Serenity finds expression in God.

 

When persecution is a friend

When turbulence the relative we know

When solitude our world embrace

When the sea of the soul is still

Serenity finds expression in God.

 

When neglect is hosted with a cheerful grin

When wickedness visit but love the story we share

When care is caged and careless yet carers we translate

When the sea of the soul is still

Serenity finds expression in God.

 

When mischief shrinks like wildfire under control

When the lip hot with malice is bridled

When plain glass stay unbroken by a brick of hate

When the sea of the soul is still

Serenity finds expression in God.

 

When the fangs of betrayal touch a flesh of steel

When laughter echos from the depth of grief

When gratitude flourish in the drought of Somaliland

When the sea of the soul is still

Serenity finds expression in God.

 

When calm is the sea of trouble

When plenty reign amidst the whirlwind of lack

When the journey’s end is gain to the righteous

When the sea of the soul is still

Serenity finds expression in God.
