Love Lifted Me

(album: Faithfully Yours - 1963)

I was sinking deep in sin far from the peaceful shore
Very deeply stained within sinking to rise no more
What the Master of the sea heard my despairing cry
From the waters lifted me now saved am I

Love lifted me, love lifted me
When nothing else could help, love lifted me
Love lifted me, love lifted me
When nothing else could help, love lifted me

All my heart to him I'd give ever to him I'll cling
In his blessed presence live ever his praises sing
Love's so mighty and so true merits my soul with songs
Faithful loving service to to him belongs

Love lifted me, love lifted me
When nothing else could help, love lifted me
Love lifted me, love lifted me
When nothing else could help, love lifted me

Souls in danger look above Jesus completely says
He will lift you by his love out of the angry ways
He's the Master of the sea willows his will obey
He your Saviour wants to be be saved today

Love lifted me, love lifted me
When nothing else could help, love lifted me
Love lifted me, love lifted me
When nothing else could help, love lifted me
