Love Lifted Me
The text of this song, written by James Rowe in 1912, is based in part on Peter's expereience when he stepped out of the boat and walked on water (Matthew 14:25-29). The Lord saved Peter that day, when he became afraid and his faith weakened.
The first verse and chorus of this song reminds us that Jesus' love continues to save us from the struggles of life:
I was sinking deep in sin, far from the peaceful shore;
Very deeply stained within, sinking to rise no more;
But the master of the sea heard my despariing cry,
From the waters lifted me; Now safe am I.
Love lifted me, love lifted me,
When no one but Christ could help, love lifted me.
