There`s a lighthouse on the hillside that
overlooks life`s sea
When I`m tossed it sends out light, light that I might see
And the light that shines in darkness now will safely lead me
o`er
If it wasn`t for that lighthouse my ship would be no more.
And I thank God for the lighthouse, I owe
my life to him
For Jesus is the lighthouse, and from the rocks of sin
He has shown the light around me that I might clearly see
And if it wasn`t for the lighthouse then where would this ship
be?
Everybody that lives around us said tear
that old lighthouse down
The big ships don`t sail this way anymore, there`s no use in it
standing around
Then my mind goes back to that stormy night when just in time I
saw the light
Yes, the light from that old lighthouse that stands up there on
the hill...
And I thank God for the
lighthouse, I owe my life to him
For Jesus is the lighthouse, and from the rocks of sin
He has shown the light around me that I might clearly see
And if it wasn`t for the lighthouse then where would this ship
be?
