Lifeline

Maker of the sun and shadeThe plans were made before the morningAt a time when no one knewHe left a clue and sent us a lifeline... It's fineThen along came a man like meWith everything laid out before himThen it all came crashing downA man can drown from thoughts in his own mindLike something deep inside my soulWas sinking fast; I was the holeWhen I was almost out of timeHe gave me a lifeline right down to my soulHe gave me a lifeline that I might grab a holdSuffering was nothing newMy days were few without a let downSomething down there deep insideDissatisfied with everything I'd findAnd in the clouds he sent the skyInto a desert running dryHe sent a river full of lifeHe gave me a lifeline right down to my soulHe gave me a lifeline that I might grab a holdHe gave me a lifeline when I was cast awayHe gave me a lifeline right up from the graveHe sent me a lifeline when I was on my ownFar from the borders he came brought me homeHe sent me a lifeline when I was down the holeMy world was like an ocean raging out of controlSend me a lifelineSend me a lifelineOnce upon another timeHe made my mind a different colorPainted on my destiny away betweenThe black and lonely sky... Let's fly!He gave me a lifeline right down to my soulHe gave me a lifeline that I might grab a holdHe gave me a lifeline when I was cast awayHe gave me a lifeline and I'm alive todayHe gave me a lifelineHe gave me a lifeline and I'm alive todayHe gave me a lifelineJesus is my lifeline
