Lost…

I once was lost in the sea of life
Caught in the waves of endless rife;
Tossed with the waters, and out of control,
Amid confusions in a life dull and droll.

My ship was sailin’ on a roaring sea,
Alone and forsaken, a heartfelt plea;
Drifting away at the waters will,
Never seeming to get my fill;

I was sailing in circles, and all hope was lost
Never fearing the wrath this life would cost.
Frustrations mounted, and bitterness came,
My world was crashing, I found ill fame;

I chased every vice that man could attain,
It soon led to a life of notorious gain;
I sunk to the bottom, in the sea of despair,
And wondered how I ever ended up there.

I drifted the seas for a long, long while;
Tasting the delights of evil and guile;
Taking aught that I could for gain,
Filling my heart with life’s venomous bane.

I was lost! As lost as I could be,
Until my Savior came, and rescued me;
Entangled in thorns, caught in snares,
I gave to Jesus all my cares.

He changed my life, and set me free,
From all my foolish anxi-ety;
He lifted me up from the miry clay,
And set my Heart on another day;

The Day of the Lord is now my hope,
Awaiting His glory allows me to cope;
He set my sails towards Heaven’s seas,
And bowed me down upon my knees.

He set my sight on a higher goal,
And cleansed the dirt from a sin-sick soul;
I was dead!-- was lost, and am found,
My ship has been turned around;

I sail those fierce, wild seas no more,
But anchor my craft on Heaven’s shore;
I’m moored in the sands of heaven’s delights,
Safe from the waves of earth’s morbid blights.
