Troublesome waters much blacker than night Are hiding from view the harbor's bright light Tossed in the turmoil of life's stormy sea I cried to my Savior have mercy on me Then gently I'm feeling the touch of His hand Guiding my boat in safely to land Leading the way to heaven's bright shore Troublesome waters I'm fearing no more Troublesome waters around me do roll They're rocking my boat and wrecking my soul Loved ones are drifting and living in sin The treacherous whirlpools are pulling them in Then gently I'm feeling the touch of His hand Guiding my boat in safely to land Leading the way to heaven's bright shore Troublesome waters I'm fearing no more When troublesome waters are rolling so high 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 the touch of His hand Guiding my boat in safely to land Leading the way to heaven's bright shore Troublesome waters I'm fearing no more
