Troublesome Waters
Navigating Life's Turbulence: A Song of Faith
Lyrics
Troublesome waters, much blacker than night,
Troublesome waters symbolize difficult and challenging times or situations.
are hiding from view the harbor's bright light
The brightness of the harbor's light is obscured or hidden by these difficult circumstances.
Tossed on the turmoil of life's troubled sea
The persona feels tossed and troubled amidst life's chaotic and troubled experiences.
I cried to my Savior, "Have mercy on me".
The persona appeals to their Savior for mercy and help in navigating through these difficult times.
Then gently I'm feeling the touch of his hand
The comforting touch of the Savior is felt, providing guidance and assurance.
guiding my boat in safely to land
Under the Savior's guidance, the persona's journey is directed safely towards stability and security.
Leading the way to heaven's bright shore
The Savior leads the way towards a peaceful and heavenly destination.
where troublesome waters I'm fearing no more
At this heavenly place, there is no fear of the previously troublesome waters.
Troublesome waters around me do roll
The challenges (troublesome waters) around continue to cause disturbance and distress.
They're rocking my boat and wrecking my soul
These challenges are affecting the persona deeply, causing inner turmoil and distress.
Loved ones are drifting and living in sin
The persona expresses concern about loved ones who are straying from a righteous path.
the treacherous whirlpools are pulling them in
The influence of negative forces is pulling these loved ones towards danger and harm.
Then gently I'm feeling the touch of his hand
The comforting presence of the Savior is once again felt, guiding and assuring safety.
guiding my boat in safely to land
The guidance of the Savior leads towards a secure and stable destination.
Leading the way to heaven's bright shore
The ultimate destination remains the heavenly and peaceful shore.
where troublesome waters I'm fearing no more
In this heavenly place, there is no longer any fear of the troublesome waters.
When troublesome waters are rolling so high
When faced with high-level challenges, the persona prays and cries out to the Lord.
I lift up my voice and to heaven and cry
Expressing trust in the Lord, seeking guidance and stability amidst turbulent times.
Lord, I am trusting, give guidance to me
A plea for the Lord's guidance and stability in navigating life's troubled waters.
and steady my boat on life's troubled sea
Seeking the Lord's support to maintain stability amidst life's chaotic experiences.
Then gently I'm feeling the touch of his hand
Feeling once more the reassuring touch of the Savior, guiding towards safety.
guiding my boat in safely to land
The guidance leads towards a secure destination amid life's tumultuous sea.
Leading the way to heaven's bright shore
The ultimate destination being the heavenly and peaceful shore.
where troublesome waters I'm fearing no more
In this heavenly place, there is no longer any fear of the troublesome waters.
