THE LIGHTHOUSE

There's a lighthouse on a hillside
That overlooks life's sea
When I'm tossed, it sends out
A light that I might see
And the light that shines in darkness now
Will safely lead me thru the night
If it wasn't for The Lighthouse
My ship would sail no more.

cho: And I thank God for The Lighthouse
Well, I owe my life to Him
For Jesus is The Lighthouse
And from the rocks I've seen
He has shown a light all around me
That I might clearly see
If it wasn't for The Lighthouse
Tell me where would this ship be.

Ev'rybody that lives about me
They said tear that lighthouse down
'Cause the big ships they don't sail this way anymore
There's no use of it standing 'round
Then my mind goes back to that stormy night
When just in time, I saw that light
Yes that light from that old lighthouse
That stands up there on the hill.

cho:

He has shown a light all around me
That I could clearly see
If it wasn't for The Lighthouse
Tell me where would this ship be.

This is exactly the song I remember growing up as a child in the church -- it has so much hope written into what some would characterize as simple lyrics.

thanks again

Debbie,
Thank you very much for sending me the lyrics to "The Lighthouse" hymn.
This song was requested for me to sing at a funeral. I heard the song before, but was not very familiar with its lyrics and melody. This is a great help. Thank you very much!
