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.
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.
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.

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.
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.

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.

I remember singing this song in church as a child and young Teen. It truly is the Love of Christ that motivates us. We love Him because He first loved us.

Had it not been for the wonderful and endearing firey love of Jesu Christ, I would still be in the angry billows of sin. Being tossed on every side by the evil one. PRAISE GOD FOR HIS WONDERFUL AMAZING LOVE THAT LIFTS SINNERS LIKE ME.

I have always been a “good” kid. I often thought I was the one that stayed out of trouble when my friends got into evil things. When I sang this song this morning I realized it was love that lifted me out of the death waters. I was saved when I was 6 and now I see it was His love that lifted me from that time and kept me all these years. Yes love lifted me! What a great gospel song!
