I was sinking deep in sin

1
I was sinking deep in sin,
  Far from the peaceful shore,
Very deeply stained within,
  Sinking to rise no more;
But the Master of the sea
  Heard my despairing cry,
From the waters lifted me,
  Now safe 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.
2
All my heart to Him I give,
  Ever to Him I'll cling,
In His blessed presence live,
  Ever His praises sing.
Love so mighty and so true
  Merits my soul's best songs;
Faithful, loving service, too,
  To Him belongs.
3
Souls in danger, look above,
  Jesus completely saves;
He will lift you by His love
  Out of the angry waves.
He's the Master of the sea,
  Billows His will obey;
He your Savior wants to be—
  Be saved today.

My Mother sang this song while cooking dinner for her six sons and our father. I am now 78 but she still fills my soul. when I think of her singing.

I have always been a “good” kid. I often thought I was the one that stayed out of trouble when my friends got into evil things. When I sang this song this morning I realized it was love that lifted me out of the death waters. I was saved when I was 6 and now I see it was His love that lifted me from that time and kept me all these years. Yes love lifted me! What a great gospel song!

I went to bed pleading for victory and woke up with this song on my mind. I looked it up, wrote it out and read some beautiful comments. How encouraging to realize so many are clinging to Jesus. Let us put on the whole armor of God and be BOLD for Jesus!
