I was lost at sea, water all aorund
Not a life in sight, just the same old sound
Of the swells drifting under the lumber I was clinging to
My time was over. I was surely done for.
Then I saw the Lord coming right for me
On a rescure mission, could it really be?
That He wants to forgive me and give me eternal life secure?
He made the offer. it's what I had hoped for.
And then he said, He said to me
I'll be the lifeline you can cling to
The hope that you can hold to
The love that you can look for when you're drifting away
I'll be the faith that you can stand on
The Rock that you can build on
I'm the one who'll make you whole
I'm the anchor for your soul
People telling me my story's just a tale
That every way is different and everyone must fail
And succeed in their own way, that one way is surely not the truth
But I feel I must tell them, I really fell I gotta tell them
That I was lost at sea and the Lord saved me
He gave me life, now all I want to be
Is a vessel of freedom to anyone who comes my way
Oh, I'll lead them to Jesus, I want to lead them to Jesus
Because He said, He said to me
Repeat Chorus
