Analysis of MOUNTIANS STILL CRUMBLE



MOUNTAINS STILL CRUMBLE

Lord help to hit my knees
I'll lift to you my pleas
Now as I did at the start
Stop the storm, tearing me apart

Fire from the sky, falls
Lord my heart calls
The seas rise, I drown
The world falls all 'round

As the storms rise
All around hope dies
God says," be still and know
I am God, and my peace will grow"

And then peace engulfed me
Right there in the raging sea
The storm quickly quieted within
As His grace conquered my sin

The wind calms on the sea
If Christ is for me,
Who can stand against?
Our faith is never fenced

When we stay true and humble
The mountains still crumble
But the giants fall before
As our knees hit the floor
AMEN

About this poem

He replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” Matthew 17 20
