This life is a dark ocean/and I cannot see the rocks underneath the surface/
at night I cannot see when the waves are coming/but when I am looking upon the horizon/
for something to provide me with/a shimmer of hope/in the midst of this confusion/
You are my lighthouse/and I can see you/when the waves are crushing me/and I know that there is light amidst/
admist the heartache the times when it seems to stormy/the lighthouse provides me with a beacon of hope.
Help me Lord to see the lighthouse/when I feel like giving up on life/help me to see the rocks under the surface/
because if I get caught on them/I don’t know what I would do/I know it would give me more to trust you with/
If this really was reality
I know you are the hope/in the sea of life I am sitting in/I know you are the light in this ocean I am swimming in/
and I don’t know how to explain/all the pain I haven’t let you have control of/
