Save Me

John Schlitt


Fisherman scared in the dark of night
Can't believe what's in his sight
Teacher walking towards him on a sea of blue
Fisherman asks, "can i come to you?"
When he's water walking
Faith begins to leave him
As he falls you hear him say

Save me
So many times a rebel's cry
Save me
Lift me up and guide me
Show me what i can be

Another day of living and another battle on
We want to do right but we end up wrong
We keep on trying but it does no good
We're just not being like we know we should
No matter how we try
There's no way to deny
We can't do it on our own

Save me
So many times a rebel's cry
Save me
Hear me now from deep inside
Save me
Let me know you're by my side
Take my hand and guide me
Show me what i can be
