As I ponder on life's troubled sea
Pouring out my heart on bended knee
And I meditate upon Your word,
In my heart it strikes a cord.

I once was lost to hell's domain
Now redeemed by your sweet name.
You precious Jesus my eternal joy
Are life's anchor in a troubled world.

When in times I'm in the valley low
You're there a better way to show.
Your mighty works of Holy Design
Nothing less than goodness divine.

Leading to a mountain top experience
Only in You will I find deliverance.
With me in mind before universe time
You prepared a saving way sublime.

Yes, your word lights up my path
Showing the way to your river strath.
There I can drink of your eternal life
Never more to endure earthly strife.

Yes, your word a lamp unto my feet
Lighting the way to heavenly streets,
Where no more heartache and cares
Will burden my soul with snares.

Before You became my One and All,
And I had answered Your Holy call,
I was lost in certainty to eternities hell.
But, now I'm bound for heaven's well,
Where springs of life waters freely flow
Brisk and refreshing to my thirsty soul.

I long to embrace my Lord and God
And in His Heavenly realm to trod.
