LOVE LIFTED ME [ORIGINAL VERSION]
Author(s): Jonas
Songbook: Compiled LJ Songs
KeyWords: Witnessing (About),

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

Chorus:
Love lifted me, love lifted me,
When nothing else could help,
Love lifted me, love lifted me, love lifted me,
When nothing else could help, love lifted me

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

[Chorus]

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

[Chorus]

When the waves of sorrow roar, when I am in distress,
Jesus takes my hand in His, ever He loves to bless,
He will every fear dispel, satisfy every need,
All who heed His loving call find rest indeed

[Repeat Chorus Twice]
