There's a lighthouse on the 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 home
If it wasn't for the lighthouse my ship would sail no more.
Everybody that lives around us says tear that lighthouse down
The big ships don't sail this way anymore
Ain't no use it standing round
But then my mind goes back to that
stormy night
When just in time I saw the light
With the light from that old lighthouse
That stands there on the hill
And I thank God for the lighthouse
I own my life to Him
Jesus is the lighthouse and from the rocks of sin
He has shown the light all around me so that I might clearly see
If it wasn't for the lighthouse
Where would this ship be.
