My friend is the going rough with troubled seas around
                                   D7                    G7
Do angry winds beset your soul and dark clouds on you'll frown
C                                  F            C
Have you ever looked for bread and only found a stone
                                         G7           C
Could it be because you're paddling your boat of life alone

                                     F                C
Is the raft you once had charted now both blurred and marred
                                D7             G7
Is your soul and body weary the task of rowing hard
C                                F              C
Have you ever looked for joy and disappointment known
                                         G7           C
Could it be because you're paddling your boat of life alone

                                      F               C
My friend there is one who knows your every fault and sin
                                      D7                 G7
And He knows you struggle and through all your life fold in
C                              F               C
So why not call on Jesus He'll help you safely on
                          G7            C
Oh my friend it's foolish to paddle all alone
