Lyrics

On a still and starry evening I was sailing along the ocean
When a storm approached my boat
Without warning, like a lion roaring
With its only purpose to seek me and devour

Maliciously clawing the peacefulness
When I found myself drowning under waves of despair
A voice like thunder whispered sweet

Oh, surrender yourself wholeheartedly
To the Great Captain of the Sea
I'll save your life, trust in me
Oh, surrender, look ahead child, don't lose faith
These troubled waters won't seal your grave
If you just reach out
Rise and walk with me

Life is just too precious
In this ocean of eternity
This vastness is a vapor
‘Cause without warning
That lion's roaring with its only mission

Maliciously clawing the peacefulness
When you find yourself drowning
Under the waves of despair
Don't fear when you hear Jesus speak

Oh, surrender yourself wholeheartedly
To the Great Captain of the Sea
I'll save your life, trust in me
Oh, surrender, look ahead child, don't lose faith
These troubled waters won't seal your grave
If you just reach out
Rise and walk with me

Oh, surrender yourself wholeheartedly
To the Great Captain of the Sea
I'll save your life, trust in me
Oh, surrender, yourself wholeheartedly
To the Great Captain of the Sea
If you just reach out
