I drift on the ocean,
tossed to a distant shore
But I was marooned, lost forevermore
But
I found a haven from a world of woe and strife
I've been rescued by the island of life Oh,
what a
wonderful place
Washed by the seas of His grace
For it was all so unreal
Till my tears of joy I could feel
After all my darkest fear
Came an answer to my prayer But I was lost and alone
My wayward soul ran aground
No more will I sail those stormy seas of sin
Now this seafarer's ship
has come in
Carried by the tide of truth across the cleansing waves
I cast away on the island that saved me Oh,
what a wonderful place
Washed by the seas of His grace
I thought it was all so unreal
Till my tears of joy I could feel
After all my darkest fear
Came an answer to my prayer
But I was lost and found On the island of life
