The waves were whisperin’ trouble, the timbers gave a groan,
The sky turned gray above us, the sea claimed it as her own.
The lanterns swung in silence, every heart began to pray,
We tried to keep her steady, but hope was washed away.
The deck was cold and shuddered, water creeping near,
A tremor in the captain’s voice said, “Hold your courage here.”
Still we pulled the ropes together, though faith was torn and thin,
Each soul aboard was pleading, “Let daylight come again.
When the lifeboats came, oh the darkness turned to flame!
We were lost upon the water, but they called us by our name.
From the deep despair to the calm again we came,
Yeah, the sea tried to take us — but love lit up the waves.
The storm kept singing louder, the mast began to bend,
We thought the tale was written, disaster at the end.
Yet through that deepest moment, a single light we saw,
A beacon through the shadows — grace replaced our awe.
They reached us, arms extended, voices breaking through,
“Hold tight, you’re not forsaken — we’ve come to carry you.”
Hands once cold with fear now warmed in rescue’s light,
The dawn began to shimmer, ending endless night.
When the lifeboats came, oh the darkness turned to flame!
We were lost upon the water, but they called us by our name.
From the deep despair to the calm again we came,
Yeah, the sea tried to take us — but love lit up the waves.
We turned to see our vessel sink gentle, slow, and wide —
A thousand dreams beneath us, now resting in the tide.
But hearts were sailing higher than ever waves could rise,
For mercy found its harbor where tears had filled our eyes.
Now when storms are gatherin’, and shadows hide the shore,
We tell the tale of lifeboats — hope forevermore.
That memory keeps steady the soul that once was frail,
For when the call of rescue comes, love will never fail.
When the lifeboats came, oh the darkness turned to flame!
We were lost upon the water, but they called us by our name.
From the deep despair to the calm again we came,
Yeah, the sea tried to take us — but love lit up the waves.
The sea’s forever changin’, but I’ll never be the same,
For I was lost and sinking — till the lifeboats came.
And every wave that crashes reminds me through the pain,
The storm can rage and thunder… but it won’t win again.
When the lifeboats came, oh the darkness turned to flame!
We were lost upon the water, but they called us by our name.
From the deep despair to the calm again we came,
Yeah, the sea tried to take us — but love lit up the waves.
When the lifeboats came, oh the darkness turned to flame!
We were lost upon the water, but they called us by our name.
From the deep despair to the calm again we came,
Yeah, the sea tried to take us — but love lit up the waves.
Yeah, the sea tried to take us — but love lit up the waves.
