THE ONLY HOPE I NEED
Words and Music by Phil Morgan
My life was like a ship upon the ocean,
The wind would blow and my sail was torn and tossed.
I didn't know if I would make it, I wasn't sure that I could take it,
And it seemed at times that all my hope was lost.
Then I recalled a lesson from my childhood,
About a man who gave His life for me,
And I heard Him beckon to me, I felt His love flow through me,
My blinded eyes were opened and I could finally see, that ...
CHORUS
The only hope I have, is the hope that lives in me,
I've got Jesus in my heart and I can claim the victory.
Oh, when troubles come and knock me to my knees,
Oh, the only hope I have, is the only hope I need.
It's been so long since I gave my life to Him,
My future's in a hand that's scarred by nails.
And I know that I'm not worthy, to ever see His glory
If I had to earn my way to heaven, I would surely fail, So ...
CHORUS
Oh, when troubles come and knock me to my knees,
Oh, the only hope I have, is the only hope I need.
