Text: | Love Lifted Me |
Author: | James Rowe |
Tune: | [I was sinking deep in sin] |
Composer: | Howard E. Smith |
1 I was sinking deep in sin,
Far from the peaceful shore,
Very deeply stained within,
Sinking to rise no more;
But the Master of the sea
Heard my despairing cry,
From the waters lifted me,
Now safe am I.
Refrain:
Love lifted me!
Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help,
Love lifted me.
2 All my heart to Him I give,
Ever to Him I'll cling;
In His blessed presence live,
Ever His praises sing.
Love so mighty and so true
Merits my soul's best songs;
Faithful, loving service, too,
To Him belongs. [Refrain]
3 Souls in danger, look above,
Jesus completely saves;
He will lift you by His love
Out of the angry waves.
He's the Master of the sea,
Billows His will obey;
He your Saviour wants to be,
Be saved today. [Refrain]
