My Lighthouse

Drifting in darkness, hopelessly lost.

At the sea's mercy, churning and tossed.

Knowing unless someone guides me to shore,

I won't survive on my own any more.

 

Then through the darkness I spotted a light,

A symbol of hope in the darkness of night.

Now I can follow the light that I see.

The Lighthouse is shining to rescue me.

 

Light in my darkness, you showed me the way.

You searched and rescued when I knelt to pray.

Once lost in darkness to helplessly roam,

Now led by your light I can find my way home.

 

Light of the world you came down from above.

Entered my darkness to fill it with love.

Beacon of light, You were hung on a tree,

Now shining from Sonrise to eternity.

 

Light in my darkness, you showed me the way.

You searched and rescued when I knelt to pray.

You were my lighthouse when all hope was gone.

You led me from darkness to unending dawn.
