Johnny Cash - Troublesome Waters (Album Version) lyrics

(M. Carter - E.J. Carter - Deen) Troublesome waters much blacker than night Are hiding from view the harbor's bright light Tossed in the turmoil of life's stormy sea I cried to my Savior, "Have mercy on me" (Chorus) Then gently I'm feelin' the touch of His hand Guiding my boat in safely to land Leading the way to heaven's bright shore Troublesome waters I'm fearing no more Troublesome waters around me do roll They're rocking my boat and wreckin' my soul Loved ones are driftin' and livin' in sin The treacherous whirlpools are pullin' them in (Repeat Chorus) When troublesome waters are rollin' so high I'll lift up my voice and to heaven I'll cry "My Lord I am trusting, give guidance to me And steady my boat on life's troubled sea" (Repeat Chorus) Troublesome waters I'm fearing no more
