The poetry by Shahidah reads as follows:
O Mighty Power,
with faith strong and secure…
give us strength to follow Thee,
teach us to fear no more.
Help us to remember
the great things that You did…
How You fed a multitude
with two fish and some bread.
How You called for Lazarus,
and he got up from the grave…
How You opened up the seas
and all the lives You Saved.
How You healed the sick.
How You fed the poor…
How You told the sinful women
to go and sin no more.
All the greatness that You did,
the great faith that You showed…
How You walked upon the water,
as if it were a road.
So give us faith Dear Savior
and help us all to stand…
The seas of troubled waters
please protect us with Thy hand.
