____________

V1.
When I am scared, You are my Father.
When I can't breathe, You are the air.
When I can't swim, You are a lifeboat.
When I'm tired and weary, You are there.
____________

CHORUS:
And my times get high, my times get low.
You always let me in on all that You know.
I could give You time alone and then,
You'd only come and ask me, "Where have you been?"
____________

V2.
When I am weak, You are my shoulders.
When I'm poor, You give me a hand.
And when I can't swim, You are a lifeboat.
You carry me to dry land.
____________

CHORUS.
____________

V3.
When I'm not sure, You are my maker,
Speaking words that keep me aware.
And when I can't swim, You are a lifeboat.
When I'm tired and weary, You are there.
____________

CHORUS.
