I

I was like a boat, adrift on the sea. You chose me, and to a haven You led me. Now in Your family, warmed by Your love, I am all at peace. You bless me, give Your words of judgment. Still how I fail to cherish Your grace. Often rebelling, somehow hurting Your heart. Yet You don't treat me by my sins but work for my salvation. When I'm distant, You call me back from danger. When I rebel, You hide Your face, darkness wrapping me. When I come back to You, You show mercy, smile to embrace. When Satan scourges me, You heal my wounds, warm my heart. When the devil hurts me, You're with me through the trial. Dawn will soon appear, and skies will shine blue as before, when You're there with me. Dawn will soon appear, and skies will shine blue as before, when You're there with me.

You are my life, You are my Lord. Daily companion, shadow close by my side. Teaching me how to be human and giving me truth and life. With You my life bursts forth in splendor. Without my own choice, obey Your rule. Be a true creation, return to Your side. Living in Your presence, I talk with You and hear Your voice. No more You'll wait in the lonely distance. In Your company, no more fearing the storm. When night covers me, I'm not alone anymore. With You by my side, danger or trouble, I can face. In Your company, journeys won't be too hard. Bumpy roads passing through troubles, they give way to a beautiful spring. Dawn will soon appear, and skies will shine blue as before, when You're there with me. In Your company, no more fearing the storm. When night covers me, I'm not alone anymore. With You by my side, danger or trouble, I can face. In Your company, journeys won't be too hard. Bumpy roads passing through troubles, they give way to a beautiful spring. Dawn will soon appear, and skies will shine blue as before. I'm in Your company.
