The Waters Are Troubled

Jeremiah Eames Rankin • English

Primary Scripture: Acts 26:28

Verse 1

The waters are troubled, The angel is here; The fountain of mercy Flows healing and clear; O come in your sorrow, And come in your sin; The water are troubled, Step in, O step in!

Verse 2

The waters are troubled, No longer delay; The fountain of mercy Has healing today. Then why will you linger, Since life you may win? The waters are troubled, Step in, O step in!

The waters are troubled, The angel still waits; He pauses in peril Who halts and debates. Give over your falt’ring, Your struggles within, The waters are troubled, Step in, O step in!
