O’er These Troubled Waters

 

Lord, the day is bleak. Should I stumble o’er this shore of life...
Help me when I am troubled, to ask Thy help in all the strife.
The climb seems long and weary, as I wait for Thee to take the helm.
Tell me all is well and You wont leave me... you’ll keep the ocean calm.

Let my faith grow within Thee... o’er this life’s troubled shore.
Help me and guide me, all through life and then forevermore.
Quench the fiery darts that assail me Lord, let them pass me by,
As I tread on the troubled shore of life... stifling every sigh.

Hear my cry Lord...Let Thy Son hold me up, o’er the raging tide.
Let my soul drink of Thy holiness, on this long troubled ride.
Let the beacon of Jesus be shining, as His Glory gleams upon my head,
That I may claim Him ever... On this troubled oceans roughened bed.

Let me trust in Thee truly... all the weary, long night, on through
Until I reach the shores of Heaven, seeking Thee in all I ever do...
Trusting Jesus to the ultimate degree...,He is the King of Kings.
And in the troubled waters daily, peace and joy this Savior brings.

He is a God of Honor... His own word all the way there will stay.
Never will I have to wonder, as I go to my Lord and Humbly Pray.
He is Master of the sea... On troubled water, He is my holy stay.
When I put my trust in this Christ my Savior... He will stay the way.
