My Son Lyrics

My Son lyrics

When Billy had just turned eight

He was all alone in a boat 

By his house on the lake

He laid back as he closed his eyes

And he drifted off to sleep



He awoke to the sound of crashing waves

His boat was a million miles away

And just when he thought he'd seen the end

He heard his father's voice again, he said...



Son just take my hand

Rest your feet on solid land

Keep your eyes laid on me

Don't be swayed by the sea

And I will lead you home



You know that I live for You

But sometimes I get caught in the storm

And I fall

You know when I'm in that boat

And the world comes seeping in



Sometimes I start sinking in the sea

Sometimes I'm in way too deep for me

Sometimes when I'm crying out for fear

I hear You whisper in my ear, You say...



Son just take my hand

Rest your feet on solid land

Keep your eyes laid on me

Don't be swayed by the sea

And I will lead you home
