There's a lighthouse on a hillside
That overlooks life's sea
And when I'm tossed, it sends out a light
A light that I might see
And the light that shines in darkness night
Will safely lead me home
And if it wasn't for the lighthouse
My ship would sail no more
Now everybody that lives around me
Is saying tear that old lighthouse down
They say the big ships don't sail this way anymore
There's no use of it standing 'round
But then my mind goes back to one stormy night
When just in time, I saw the Light
It was the light from that old lighthouse
That stands upon the hill
And I thank God for the Lighthouse
I owe my life to Him
For my Jesus is the Lighthouse
From the rocks of sin
He has shone the light around me
That I might clearly see
And if it wasn't for the lighthouse
Tell me where would this ship be
He has shone the light around me
That I might clearly see
And if it wasn't for the lighthouse
Tell me where would this ship be
