Lyrics

There's a lighthouse on the hillside

That overlooks life's sea

When I'm tossed it sends out a light,

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 who lives around us

Says tear that lighthouse down

The big ships

They don't sail by this way anymore,


Ain't no use it standing around

Then my mind goes back

To the stormy night when just in time,

I saw the light,


Oh light from that old lighthouse,

That stands up there on the hill.

And I thank God for the lighthouse,

I owe my life to him.

For Jesus is the lighthouse,


And from the rocks of sin,

He has shown the light around me

That I might clearly see

If it wasn't for the lighthouse

Tell me where would this ship be?
