A                                                E

I was sinking deep in sin, far from the peaceful shore,

E7                                             A

Very deeply stained within, sinking to rise no more,

A                                             D

But the Master of the sea heard my despairing cry,

D        Cdim   A              E7      A

From the waters lifted me, now safe am I.

[Chorus]

A    E7     A                D

Love lifted me!  Love lifted me!

D            A                B7          E7

When nothing else could help, Love lifted me.

A    E7     A                D

Love lifted me!  Love lifted me!

D            A                A    E7      A

When nothing else could help, Love lifted… me.

[Verse 2]

A                                            E7

All my heart to him I give, ever to him I’ll cling,

E7                                             A

In his blessed presence live, ever his praises sing,

A                                                D

Love so mighty and so true merits my soul’s best songs,

D         Cdim   A                E7    A

Faithful, loving service, too, to him belongs.

[Chorus]

A    E7     A                D

Love lifted me!  Love lifted me!

D            A                B7          E7

When nothing else could help, Love lifted me.

A    E7     A                D

Love lifted me!  Love lifted me!

D            A                A    E7      A

When nothing else could help, Love lifted… me.

[Verse 3]

A                                             E7

Souls in danger, look above, Jesus completely saves,

E7                                            A

He will lift you by his love out of the angry waves,

A                                             D

He’s the Master of the sea, billows his will obey,

D       Cdim   A               E7      A

He your Savior wants to be, be saved today.

[Chorus]

A    E7     A                D

Love lifted me!  Love lifted me!

D            A                B7          E7

When nothing else could help, Love lifted me.

A    E7     A                D

Love lifted me!  Love lifted me!

D            A                A    E7      A

When nothing else could help, Love lifted… me.
