With His Hand On My Shoulder

With his hand on my shoulder, I sail this sea of sin

With his hand on my shoulder, I cannot help but win

I'll follow as he pilots me through waters dark and cold

With His hand on my shoulder, I know, I'll reach my goal

My every hope is anchored to the faith I have in him

I know, I'll reach the shoreline though at times the lights are dim

He'll take me past the rocky cliffs from life's storm, I'll be released

With his hand on my shoulder, I'll have everlasting peace

Surrounded by an angry sea that's made of hate and sin

But I won't sink as long as I won't let the waters in

And with the help of God, I know, I'll never lose my way

With his hand on my shoulder, I cannot go astray

I have a home up in the sky and he made it just for me

But to prove that I'll desert this home I have to sail this sea

The waves of sin sometimes are high and the spray might touch my clothes

With his hand on my shoulder, it will never touch my soul
