I Know the Master of the Wind

This song came to mind as so many were experiencing Hurricane Sandy this past week.  First, Sandy touched my relatives in Jamaica and then it hit lots of close friends on Long Island in New York. The Bahamas was severely impacted also, but I didn't know anyone in harm's way.
Hurricane Sandy was not a category 4 - yet it wreaked so much havoc.

The first time I heard this song sung by the choir, I got goosebumps...I still do.

Remember this as you come through the storm.



MASTER OF THE WIND 

MY BOAT OF LIFE SAILS ON A TROUBLED SEA 
EVER THERE'S A WIND IN MY SAIL 
BUT I HAVE A FRIEND WHO WATCHES OVER ME 
WHEN THE BREEZE TURNS INTO THE GALE 

CHORUS: 

I KNOW THE MASTER OF THE WIND 
I KNOW THE MAKER OF THE RAIN, 
HE CAN CALM THE STORM 
MAKE THE SUN SHINE AGAIN 
I KNOW THE MASTER OF THE WIND 

SOMETIMES I SOAR LIKE AN EAGLE IN THE SKY, 
AMONG THE PEAKS MY SOUL CAN BE FOUND 
AN UNEXPECTED STORM MAY DRIVE ME FROM THE HEIGHTS 
BRING ME LOW BUT NE'ER BRING ME DOWN 

REPEAT CHORUS: 

TAG: 

(softly) 

HE CAN CALM THE STORM 
MAKE THE SUN SHINE AGAIN 
I KNOW THE MASTER OF THE WIND

Do you know the Master of the wind?

  1. I can across your blog randomly. I also lost a brother recently. He was 19 and died 10 months ago. The title of this post intrigued me. I was reading ecclesiasties today. I am sure you are familiar with it- everyting is a chasing after the wind. But God is the master of the wind.
