Maker of the sun and shade
The plans were made before the morning
At a time when no one knew
He left a clue and sent us a lifeline... It's fine

Then along came a man like me
With everything laid out before him
Then it all came crashing down
man can drown from thoughts in his own mind

Like something deep inside my soul
Was sinking fast; I was the hole
When I was almost out of time

He gave me a lifeline right down to my soul
He gave me a lifeline that I might grab a hold

Suffering was nothing new
My days were few without a let down
Something down there deep inside
Dissatisfied with everything I'd find

And in the clouds he sent the sky
Into a [bad word] dry
He sent a river full of life

He gave me a lifeline right down to my soul
He gave me a lifeline that I might grab a hold
He gave me a lifeline when I was cast away
He gave me a lifeline right up from the grave

He sent me a lifeline when I was on my own
Far from the borders he came brought me home
He sent me a lifeline when I was down the hole
My world was like an ocean raging out of control

Send me a lifeline
Send me a lifeline

Once upon another time
He made my mind a different color
Painted on my destiny away between
The black and lonely sky... Let's fly!

He gave me a lifeline right down to my soul
He gave me a lifeline that I might grab a hold
He gave me a lifeline when I was cast away
He gave me a lifeline and I'm alive today

He gave me a lifeline
He gave me a lifeline and I'm alive today
He gave me a lifeline
Jesus is my lifeline
