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.

I love this hymn and grateful that it was available today for me to sing. I am 44 years old and God's love is still lifting me above my circumstances and a world of busyness!

This song has been a blessing to me since 1968, when I was in Theological College. STILL BLESSES MY SOUL. THANKS.

I love this song. I am 63 yrs. This is the song I loved to sing when I was a little girl. It tells you that God's love will save you from your sins.

This is perfect with no singing. We should sing praises unto the Lord ourselves. Colossians 3:16 ~ Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord... I'm sure God would want you to learn these hymns and sing out loud even in your own home.
