Troublesome Waters

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 cried 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 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 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 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 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 Troublesome waters I'm fearing no more
