A rudderless direction needs a new Captan

Irish lullaby, guitar, male vocals, Irish rune rune

(Verse 1)
I was born into the current, just a drifter in the spray
In a boat without a rudder, let the river have its way
The world was moving fast and I was caught up in the flow
Ignoring every warning that told me where not to go
Yeah, the water started churning and the rapids pulled me down
I was reaching for a motor, just a breath before I’d drown
I heard a voice inside me screaming, "Stop! You’re going wrong!"
But the river was too heavy and the pull was far too strong.
(Chorus)
But then I heard about a Captain with an invitation grand
He’s navigating waters that no man could ever span
He reached across the whitecaps and He pulled me from the wreck
Now I’m standing on the cedar of His high-powered deck
He’s the Master of the river, He’s the Pilot of the soul
I’ve traded in my drifting for the Captain’s full control.
(Verse 2)
Now those engines never falter, and they never lose their heat
He’s cutting through the chaos with a power that’s complete
I don't have to fight the water or wonder where I’ll be
'Cause the One who made the river is the One who’s steering me
We’re heading for a harbor where the tide is always still
To a port of peace and plenty, by the Father’s holy will
With a life that’s built for purpose and a table set for friends
Where the journey find its meaning and the struggle finally ends.
(Bridge)
It’s hard to change direction when you’re speeding with the crowd
And the roar of every rapid makes the silence feel too loud
But there’s a hand extended, there’s a ship that’s passing by
You don't have to sink downstream, you just have to look on high.
(Outro / Encouraging Outgo)
So if you’re tired of the drifting, if you’re weary of the fight
If you’re spinning in the darkness and you’re looking for the light—
Don't be afraid to step out, don't be afraid to change your course
There’s a Captain who is calling with a love that is the source
Of every hope you’re seeking. He’s got room enough for you.
He’ll take you to the Home Port where He makes all things new.
Just climb aboard the vessel, let the old life drift away
Your Navigator’s waiting. Let Him lead the way today.
