Guiding Light

While out on the SEA OF LIFE,
One very dark and stormy day,
I started drifting far from the shore,
I had lost my way

I heard voices calling out to me,
Because they knew that I was lost,
But I wanted to go my own way,
Not taking time to count the cost

I heard one voice say,
“Here, catch this lifeline and I’ll push you in,
But I thought I knew what was best,
So I continued in my sin.

The farther out I drifted,
The lonelier and colder became,
It was then I asked, THE LORD,
Do you know where I am?
Can you hear me calling out your name?

I said “LORD, I'm so scared and lonely,
I can’t stay out here alone,
Please send to me your GUIDING LIGHT,
So I can find my way back home.
