Iris DeMent - Troublesome Waters текст песни

Troublesome waters, much blacker than night,
Are hiding from view, the harbour's bright light
Tossed on the turmoil of life's troubled sea,
I cried to my Saviour: "Have mercy on me"

Then gently I'm feeling the touch of his hand,
Guiding my boat in safely to land
Leading the way to heaven's bright shore,
Where troublesome waters I'm fearing no more

Troublesome waters around me do roll
They're rocking my boat and wrecking my soul
Loved ones are drifting and living in sin:
The treacherous whirlpools are pulling them in

Then gently I'm feeling the touch of his hand,
Guiding my boat in safely to land
Leading the way to heaven's bright shore,
Where troublesome waters I'm fearing no more

When troublesome waters are rolling so high,
I lift up my voice and to heaven, I cry:
"Lord, I am trusting Give guidance to me,
"And steady my boat on life's troubled sea"

Then gently I'm feeling the touch of his hand,
Guiding my boat in safely to land
Leading the way to heaven's bright shore,
Where troublesome waters I'm fearing no more
