[Verse 1]
The waves may rise, the winds may roar,
A tempest rages off the shore.
But hold on tight, the dawn will break,
A calmer sea’s your course to take.

[Chorus]
Rough seas make sailors strong,
Through the night, you’ll find your song.
The storm will pass, the Son will shine,
Have hope, my dear, your God is divine.

[Verse 2]
The clouds may cast a shadow wide,
But light will pierce where fears collide.
Each wave that crashes, bends the bow,
But faith will guide you through somehow.

[Bridge]
The thunder claps, the rain may sting,
But hear the hope the angels bring.
A whisper soft, a promise clear,
God’s hand will steer, no need to fear.

[Chorus]
Rough seas make sailors strong,
Through the night, you’ll find your song.
The storm will pass, the Son will shine,
Have hope, my dear, your God is divine.

[Verse 3]
The storm’s crescendo starts to fade,
The darkest hour begins to trade.
For golden skies and gentle breeze,
A calm awaits beyond the seas.

[Verse 4]
The waves may crash, the winds may howl,
The sea is fierce, a tempest foul.
But every storm will find its end,
And broken hearts will start to mend.

[Chorus]
Rough seas make sailors strong,
The night is dark, but it won't last long.
The storm will pass, the clouds will part,
Have hope, my dear, take heart, take heart.

[Verse 5]
The mast may bend, the sails may tear,
But courage grows when life's unfair.
The Son will shine, His light will heal,
Through faith and grace, your soul will feel.

[Bridge]
The waters churn, the thunder roars,
Yet strength is found on distant shores.
Through trials deep, your spirit grows,
A guiding light through highs and lows.

[Chorus]
Rough seas make sailors strong,
The night is dark, but it won't last long.
The storm will pass, the clouds will part,
Have hope, my dear, take heart, take heart.

[Verse 6]
So hold the wheel, though winds may fight,
Steer through the dark, into the light.
For every trial, a lesson's shown,
You're not adrift, you're not alone.
