I'm looking for a song with that in the chorus. Thanks for any help you can give.

Could it possibly be "When Crossing Time Shall Come" by The Primitive Quartet? The chorus goes:

"The lightning may flash, the thunder may roll while crossing the River. The waves may dash high and toss me about, I'll still have no fear (no fear). With Jesus my Lord to guide me along, I'll saftely cross over. He'll never forsake, oh praise His dear name, He'll always be near."

If that's it, I can get the verses, also.

I believe the verse is from "Consider Me, Lord." Annette May sang it at the 1955 Shrine Auditorium Concert after being introduced by Bro. Joe May. You can find it her performance on YouTube if you search 1955 Great Shrine Auditorium Concert

I don't know the songwriter.

Here's the verses from May's performance:

I have no one, to which I can run
Only the Lord, whom I can turn
Lord, in your vast consideration, consider me Lord

Tides rollin' high, billows defy
Lord, hear my pleadin', don't pass me by
Lord, when you smile on all creation, consider me Lord

Mad winds may blow, bad breakers roar
They beat on every side
One thing I know Lord, and to be sure
In Thee my soul can hide

When I'm alone, friends are all gone
Lord hear my pleadin', don't leave your child alone
Lord, in your vast consideration, consider me

You know my needs, oh and my deeds
You know my wishes, please let me succeed
Lord, when you bless those of the nation, consider me Lord

When in the storm, let me be calm
Trusting Thy promises, Lord help me on
When the world breaks all relations, please consider me

Lightning may flash, wild waves may dash
The tempest raging high
Send from above, whispers of love
Attend my feeble cry
The day will come, life will be all done
Lord in your presence, please let me be just one
When you give out heav'n reservations, consider me

Lightning may flash, wild waves may dash
The tempest raging high
Send from above, whispers of love
Attend my feeble cry
The day will come, life will be all done
Lord in your presence, please let me be just one
When you give out heav'n reservations, please consider me
