The Lighthouse

D                          Dsus4  D    G
There's a lighthouse on the hillside
                        D
And it overlooks life's sea.
                                                E
When I'm tossed you know it sends out a light
             A       A7
A light that I might see.
D                        Dsus4   D        G                     E
And the light that shines in darkness now   will safely lead me home,
     D                                              A
And I know, I know If it wasn't for the lighthouse,
          A7                 D
I know my ship would sail no more.

D                        Dsus4  D               G
Now everybody that lives around us, all around us
                  D
Well they all say tear the lighthouse down, and they say
                                                               E
We all know the big ships they don't sail by this way anymore,
                                A                      A7
There just ain't no use in that poor old thing standing round
        D                               Dsus4      D    G
But then my mind goes way on back to that stormy night, when I
                        E
when just in time thank God I saw the light
D
Don?t you know it was the light from that old lighthouse,
     A         A7                D
that stands up there yes it does on the hill.

             D          Dsus4   D     G              D
And I thank God for The Lighthouse, I owe my life to Him.
             Dsus4  D       E                 A
Jesus is The Lighthouse and from the rocks of sin,
D                     Dsus4   D           G               D
He has shown the light around me, so that I might clearly see.
                     Dsus4   D    A          A7         D
If it wasn't for The Lighthouse, Where would this ship be?

      D                 Dsus4   D     G              D
And I thank God for The Lighthouse, I owe my life to Him.
            Dsus4     D     E                 A
Jesus is The Lighthouse and from the rocks of sin,
D                     Dsus4   D           G               D
He has shown the light around me, so that I might clearly see.
                     Dsus4   D    A          A7        D
If it wasn't for The Lighthouse, Where would this ship be?
