Lamb of God - What That Sound?

Who could it be hanging outside the ship in the middle of the night?

I could not sleep and it happened that I was on the next watch duty.

When it was time for me to take over the watch duty, I asked the watch team handing over duty did they hear anything strange, they said 'NO'!!!!!

During the watch, when it came to the time for rounds, I took up the challenge.

I was alone for the rounds duty as again not enough manpower.

When I entered the tank deck, the sound started again, but I could not locate the sound and it was on and off. I felt cold at my back.

Anyway, I was determined to find out the source of the strange sound.

I went around the whole tank deck and I did not see 'anything'.

And the sound stopped, I waited for awhile, the sound did not come back.

As I was about to move on and leave the tank deck, just before I stepped out, the SOUND happened again, it was right at my back where I was standing. All my hair stood up.

At the time, I was not yet a Christian and totally forgot about the 3 words "Jesus, Help Me!"

I hold my fists real tight and slowly turned my body. I was preparing, if I see "anything", I would just throw my punch at 'it'.

Oh my, when I looked back, I saw nothing!!!!!!!

And the sound came on again...... I was about to run.

At the very moment, I looked up and what!!!!!!

I saw one of my colleague hanging in mid night knocking at the water pipe.

I SHOUTED at him, 'Hey, what are you doing up there at this hour?'

Oh my, he was doing some urgent maintenance work. I was relief.

Anyway, I scolded him for not informing the duty team about his work. :o)

Phew............ it scared the day light out of me.
