Troublesome waters much blacker than night
|
Are hiding from view of the harbor's bright lights
|
Tossed in the turmoil of life's stormy sea I cry to my Saviour have mercy on me
|
Then gently I'm feeling the touch of his hands guiding my boat in safely to land
|
Leading the way to heaven's bright shore
|
Troublesome waters I'm fearing no more
|
[ ac.guitar ]
|
Troublesome waters around me do roll they're rocking my boat and racking my soul
|
Loved ones are drifting and living in sin the treacherous whirlpools are pulling them in
|
Then gently I'm feeling...
|
[ ac.guitar ]
|
When troublesome waters are rolling so high I'll lift up my voice and to heaven I'll cry
|
My Lord I am trusting give guidance to me and steady my boat on life's troubled sea
|
Then gently I'm feeling...
