I was sinking deep in sin

I was sinking deep in sin,
  Far from the peaceful shore,
Very deeply stained within,
  Sinking to rise no more;
But the Master of the sea
  Heard my despairing cry,
From the waters lifted me,
  Now safe am I.
 
Love lifted me!
Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help,
  Love lifted me.
Love lifted me!
Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help,
  Love lifted me.
2
All my heart to Him I give,
  Ever to Him I'll cling,
In His blessed presence live,
  Ever His praises sing.
Love so mighty and so true
  Merits my soul's best songs;
Faithful, loving service, too,
  To Him belongs.
3
Souls in danger, look above,
  Jesus completely saves;
He will lift you by His love
  Out of the angry waves.
He's the Master of the sea,
  Billows His will obey;
He your Savior wants to be—
  Be saved today.

A Beautiful and True Lyrics to a song.


Nozipho Zele

Pretoria, Gauteng, South Africa

I only heard the song last week Saturday at Church sung by a Quartet, I was revived. Even if God came back for His church I would be one of the taken. I was so blessed. It really did something to my inner being. The song still plays in my head and in my spirit. I was sold, indeed Love lifted me when nothing else could help. God loves us dearly.

This song came to my mind and I couldn't find it in my hymn books. So happy to find it here and so thankful for my heritage where hymns were sung.
