| Lyrics:Stephanie Davis Music:Stephanie Davis | |
| In waters calm I sailed from shore | |
| To see what I might see | |
| And having never sailed before | |
| I drifted aimlessly | |
| A warm breeze rocked my boat until | |
| In slumber I fell sound | |
| But woke to find the light grown dim | |
| And dark clouds gathering 'round | |
| In haste I worked at turning back | |
| But now the wind blew wrong | |
| And when the night came cold and black | |
| My strength was almost gone | |
| But with one last small thread of hope | |
| I bowed my head to pray | |
| Then through the dark I saw a rope | |
| And heard a calm voice say | |
| (CHORUS) | |
| Grab the rope | |
| Hold it tight | |
| In the distance | |
| Shines a light | |
| Neither fear | |
| Nor feel alone | |
| There is One | |
| Who'll lead you home | |
| I heard my heart beat loud and fast | |
| But did as I was told | |
| And with the rosey dawn at last | |
| Dry land I did behold | |
| I kissed the sandy banks and swore | |
| My sailing days were through | |
| But should I ever stray from shore | |
| I know now what to do | |
| (REPEAT CHORUS) | |
| (REPEAT CHORUS) |
