Lyrics

THE WIND THAT CARRIES ME
© 2003 Tish Macurio


Verse:
My Life is like a river
And I'm a boat on the sea
I spend time charting its course
Of where I want it to lead

Sometimes the river's not smooth
And my boat drifts off its course
But you help me find my way
You steer me back to the shore

Chorus:
You're the wind that carries me
Keeping my life on course
You're the wind that carries me
Guiding me to the shore
You give my life direction
And strength to sail straight through
You're the wind that carries me

Verse:
And in the river of life
It seems I'm sailing upstream
Against waves and around bends
Not knowing where it will lead

And when the river runs dry
It seems there's nowhere to go
But you give me direction
To a river that still flows

Chorus:
You're the wind that carries me
Keeping my life on course
You're the wind that carries me
Guiding me to the shore
You give my life direction
And strength to sail straight through
You're the wind that carries me

Verse:
I've known where the river leads
Ever since you've been my friend
And you've given me the strength
To ride it out to its end

And if I find myself lost
And my boat is thrown off course
I know you'll be right there
Leading me back to the shore

Chorus:
You're the wind that carries me
Keeping my life on course
You're the wind that carries me
Guiding me to the shore
You give my life direction
And strength to sail straight through
You're the wind that carries me
You're the wind that carries me
