What manner of man is this they cried?
'What manner of Man is this? ' They cried.
'That at His word wind and wave subside.'
This One there in the boat, Who can He be?
The Man Who commands both the storm and sea.
Quelling the storms of life by His presence,
bringing calm in the place of turbulence
God manifest in human flesh is He.
The One in the boat on that stormy sea.
He's the King of all kings and Lord of lords
Stilling the storm with His powerful words.
The Father, Holy Spirit and The Son.
was the Man in the boat. The Three in One.
