Johnny Cash Troublesome Waters Lyrics

Troublesome Waters Lyrics

Troublesome waters much blacker than night 

Are hiding from view of the harbor's bright lights 

Tossed in the turmoil of life's stormy sea I cry to my Saviour have mercy on me


Then gently I'm feeling the touch of his hands guiding my boat in safely to
land 

Leading the way to heaven's bright shore 

Troublesome waters I'm fearing no more 

[ ac.guitar ] 

Troublesome waters around me do roll they're rocking my boat and racking my
soul 

Loved ones are drifting and living in sin the treacherous whirlpools are
pulling them in 

Then gently I'm feeling... 

[ ac.guitar ] 

When troublesome waters are rolling so high I'll lift up my voice and to heaven
I'll cry 

My Lord I am trusting give guidance to me and steady my boat on life's troubled
sea 

Then gently I'm feeling...
