Troublesome waters around me do roll
|
They're rockin' my boat and wreckin' my soul
|
Loved ones are driftin' and livin' in sin
|
The treacherous whirlpools are pullin' them in
|
|
When troublesome waters are rollin' so high
|
I lift up my voice and to heaven I cry
|
Lord I am trustin' give guidance to me
|
And steady my boat on life's troubled sea.
|
|
Troublesome waters are blacker than night
|
Hiding from view the harbor light bright
|
Out on the ocean I seem as a speck
|
Awful sea monsters are waiting my wreck
|
|
Gently I feel the touch of his hand
|
Guiding my boat to that better land
|
Leading way to heaven's bright shore
|
Troublesome waters I'm fearing no more
|
|
Troublesome waters around me now roll
|
Rocking my boat and tempting my soul
|
Loved ones are drifting and living in sin
|
Treacherous whirlpools are pulling them in
|
|
Sin waves are tossing and dashing so high
|
Over this noise you hear my sad cry
|
Lord I am trusting show mercy to me
|
Steady my lifeboat while I am at sea
|
