D                          Dsus4  D    G                                  
There's a lighthouse on the hillside  
                        D 
And it overlooks life's sea. 
                                                E 
When I'm tossed you know it sends out a light  
             A       A7 
A light that I might see. 
D                        Dsus4   D        G                     E      
And the light that shines in darkness now   will safely lead me home, 
     D                                              A 
And I know, I know If it wasn't for the lighthouse,  
          A7                 D 
I know my ship would sail no more. 
 
 
D                        Dsus4  D               G                           
Now everybody that lives around us, all around us  
                  D 
Well they all say tear the lighthouse down, and they say 
                                                               E 
We all know the big ships they don't sail by this way anymore,  
                                A                      A7 
There just ain't no use in that poor old thing standing round  
        D                               Dsus4      D    G                
But then my mind goes way on back to that stormy night, when I 
                        E   
when just in time thank God I saw the light 
D 
Don't you know it was the light from that old lighthouse,  
     A         A7                D 
that stands up there yes it does on the hill. 
 
 
             D          Dsus4   D     G              D 
And I thank God for The Lighthouse, I owe my life to Him. 
             Dsus4  D       E                 A 
Jesus is The Lighthouse and from the rocks of sin, 
D                     Dsus4   D           G               D 
He has shown the light around me, so that I might clearly see. 
                     Dsus4   D    A          A7         D 
If it wasn't for The Lighthouse, Where would this ship be? 
 
 
      D                 Dsus4   D     G              D 
And I thank God for The Lighthouse, I owe my life to Him.
