boat of life

my friend

is the going rough with troubled seas around

to angry when you set your soul and dark clouds on you frown

have you ever looked for bread and only found a stone

but it's because you're paddling your boat of life alone. is the raft you once had charted now both blurred and marred

is you soul and body weary

the task of rowin' hard

have you ever looked for joy and disappointment known

but it's because you're paddling your boat of life alone. my friend there is one who knows your every fault and sin

and he knows your trouble and your whole dear life of sin

so why not call on jesus

he'll help you safely on

oh

my friend

it's foolish to paddle all alone
