Troublesome wate[C]rs much blacker than nigh[F]t[C]
Are hiding from v[Am]iew the harbor's bright l[G]ight.
[C]Tossed on the turmoil of l[F]ife's troubled [C]sea
I cried to my s[Am]aviour, "Have [G]mercy on [C]me."
Chorus:
Then g[F]ently I'm feeling the touch of His h[C]and
Guiding my b[Am]oat in safely to l[G]and
[C]Leading the way to h[F]eaven's bright s[C]hore
Where troublesome w[Am]aters I'm f[G]earing no m[C]ore.
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.
Chorus-----
When troublesome waters and rolling so high
I lift up my voice and to heaven I cry,
"Lord, I am trusting, give guidance to me
And steady my boat on life's troubled sea."
