When I Am In Troubled Water
I see myself as a swimmer,
I jumped, I dipped into the water.
The feeling of soaking and getting wet,
Addressing the rage of the troubled sweat.
When I am in troubled water,
I am trying to swim faster!
Looking for something to hold on,
Persevering to carry on.
For an unknown way, I am so worried.
Swimming is an edge, yet so afraid!
In the surging waves,
I am hopeful! I will be saved!
But shouting was no use,
Grasping for air is my excuse.
So I continue to survive,
In a life that strives.
When I am in troubled water,
I asked myself further,
“Why do i fear?”
Because no One’s near?
But I know that I’m like Peter,
“LORD, I will come to YOU in the water”
The wind blows wilder,
And I begin to sink deeper!
But JESUS is gracious,
When I call, HE come and rescues!
HE immediately stretches HIS hands
HE pulled me up so I can stand.
I of little faith,
Saved by GOD who’s too Great.
The LORD who always saves me,
Is not a lifeguard nor a nobody
But in the water HE walks
As HE saves an ordinary folk.
Oh how mighty are YOU my LORD,
In the surge of a storm YOU can’t afford
To lose a sheep YOU are caring,
Gave YOUR life, continuously saving!
What can I offer back to YOU?
I can only offer my heart YOU knew.
It might not be pure, it’s broken, untrue.
YOU still accept it, I have nothing to argue.
In YOUR mercy I became pure, anew!

I thought my life was fine flowing based on my plans and will until He has changed the road i am travelling into the road that leads to Him - along that way I met Jesus.
A self-centred life became God-centred as I learned to honour and to devote myself to the One who has endured it all to save a wretch like me.
I am a favoured engineer by God at work, but serves as a Sunday School teacher (a builder) at Hope Church Singapore (in His Kingdom). It is because I see the value of reaching out the kids at their young age for Jesus.
To share testimonies on how God is changing me into whom He wanted me to be is one of the encouragement I can tell the world, but it is He who should gain the honour. Apart from him I have no good things.
I spread the seeds, some may water it but it is only God who can make it grow.
