Closer To The Shore

Lord I can scarcely fathom how on earth I've come this far

But for your lighthouse of salvation I would have perished in the dark

Lord my soul's forever grateful when the waves were threatening me

You never once abandoned this pilgrim lost at sea

I've fought through countless storms of

Life as I've sailed against the tide

Now my eyes fall on calmer waters as I approach the other side

Heaven's harbor there before me marks the truth I can't ignore

I'm not over Jordan but drawing closer to the shore

On this final course for Beulah land please Master take the helm

Till at last we will drop anchor in that celestial royal realm

With its streets of gold its joy untold your angels round the throne

Where in rapture I'll see Mom and hear her say son welcome home

I've fought through countless storms of

Life as I've sailed against the tide

Now my eyes fall on calmer waters as I approach the other side

Heaven's harbor there before me marks the truth I can't ignore

I'm not over Jordan but drawing closer to the shore

Heaven's harbor there before me marks the truth I can't ignore

I'm not over Jordan but drawing closer to the shore
