Troublesome Waters

June 13, 1964

Lyrics

Troublesome waters much blacker than night
Are hiding from view of the harbor’s bright lights
Tossed in the turmoil of life’s stormy sea I cry to my Saviour have mercy on me
Then gently I’m feeling the touch of his hands guiding my boat in safely to land
Leading the way to heaven’s bright shore
Troublesome waters I’m fearing no more
[ ac.guitar ]
Troublesome waters around me do roll they’re rocking my boat and racking my soul
Loved ones are drifting and living in sin the treacherous whirlpools are pulling them in
Then gently I’m feeling…
[ ac.guitar ]
When troublesome waters are rolling so high I’ll lift up my voice and to heaven I’ll cry
My Lord I am trusting give guidance to me and steady my boat on life’s troubled sea
Then gently I’m feeling…
