Troublesome Waters

[Verse 1]

Troublesome waters much blacker than night

Are hiding from view, the harbor's bright light

Tossed on the turmoil of life's troubled sea

I cried to my Saviour, "Have mercy on me"

[Chorus]

Then gently I'm feeling the touch of His hand

Guiding my boat in safely to land

Leading the way to heaven's bright shore

Where troublesome waters I'm fearing no more

[Verse 2]

Troublesome waters around me do roll

They're rockin' my boat and wreckin' my soul

Loved ones are driftin' and living in sin

The treacherous whirlpools are pullin' them in

[Chorus]

Then gently I'm feeling the touch of His hand

Guiding my boat in safely to land

Leading the way to heaven's bright shore

Where troublesome waters I'm fearing no more

[Verse 3]

When troublesome waters are rolling so high

I lift up my voice and to heaven, I cry

"Lord, I am trusting, give guidance to me

And steady my boat on life's troubled sea"

[Chorus]

Then gently I'm feeling the touch of His hand

Guiding my boat in safely to land

Leading the way to heaven's bright shore

Where troublesome waters I'm fearing no more
