I thought you was gonna ask me something about Lighthouse.
[C] I wasn't even gonna mention [G] it.
[D] Try [E] to say somebody else [D] wrote it for me.
[E] This is Ronnie Ensign.
He is the writer of the Lighthouse, and it's a great song.
Knowing Ronnie as I know him, it's difficult for me to believe that he wrote it, and that's
what he's talking about.
It's difficult for his brothers and sisters to think that he wrote it, too.
I think probably Brother Parkinson wrote it and gave it to him.
That's just my
You think that's what happened?
[F#] Snuck us to it right behind the stage.
It's a great song, and his brother Kenny's gonna [D] sing it, right?
Does it fine, Joe.
Yes, he does.
Listen as the Hensons do, The Lighthouse.
[A]
[D]
There's a lighthouse on the hillside
[G] That overlooks [D] Life's Sea
When I'm tossed, it sends out a [E] light
[A] That I might see
[D] And the light that shines in darkness
Now [G] will safely [E] lead us home
[D] If it wasn't for the lighthouse
My [Bm] [A] ship would be [D] no more
Everybody that lives around us
[G] Says tear that [D] lighthouse down
You know the big ships, they don't sail by this way anymore
[E] Really ain't no use, [A] it's standing round
But [D] then my mind goes back to that stormy night
[G] When just in [E] time
I seen the light, [D] yes the light
From that old lighthouse
[A] That stands up [D] there on the hill
[A] And I [D] thank [A] God [D] [G] I owe my [D] life to Him
Jesus, His life I [E] cross [A] was saved
It [D] ain't so [A]
[D] maybe, [G] but I could [D] clearly see
It wasn't for [Bm] [A]
this [D] ship's pain
[C] I wasn't even gonna mention [G] it.
