~ The
Lighthouse ~
If it wasn't for the
Lighthouse, I'd be lost
today,
If it wasn't for the beacon
light, I would not have
found my way.
If it wasn't for the waves,
coming out of the angry sea,
I would never have realized
just how many times, God has
rescued me.
The angry waves of life,
have tossed me to and fro,
And I really thought, there
was no other route to go.
Satan set his trap and like
an animal, I was caught
inside,
I showed no love for others,
because of foolish pride.
Although my storms rage on,
I know I have a life vest,
God handles all the raging
waters, as he puts my fears
to rest.
He knows that I'm not
perfect and in life I'll
continue to sin,
But those raging waters are
now battles, I know that I
can win.
God gave me the Lighthouse,
a shelter from the rain,
On dark and stormy nights, I
no longer feel any pain.
God rescued me from
darkness, brought me to the
light,
I anchored in His Love, as
His stars lit the night.
I don't know what He saw in
me, I don't deserve His
Love,
But He came to rescue me,
from His home up above.
I felt His Love and
Compassion, while in His
arms I cried.
He told me I had been
forgiven, the day His Son
died.
Every time I see a
Lighthouse, I think of
others like me,
Who have yet to find the
beacon, that shines out on
an angry sea.
But when they see His Light
shining, it's then they've
found the way,
To overcome the battles,
that rage within their world
today.
