This is Ronnie Henson.
He is the writer of [F#] 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?
I think it's too, it's right behind the stage.
It's a great song, and his brother Kenny's gonna sing it, right?
Does it [G] find you?
Yes, he does.
Listen [D] as the Hensons do The Lighthouse.
[A]
There's a lighthouse on the hillside [G] that overlooks [D] the life sea.
When I'm tossed, it sends out a [E] light that [A] I might see.
[D] And the light that shines in darkness [G] now will safely [E] lead us o'er.
[D] If it wasn't for the lighthouse, [A] my ship would [D] be no more.
[Bm] [D]
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]
It really ain't no use, [A] it's standing round.
But [D] then my mind goes back to that stormy [G] night when just in time,
[E] I seen the light, [D] yes, the light from that old lighthouse
[A] that stands up [D] there on the hill.
And I know
[A] [D] [G] I owe my [D] life to him, for Jesus is the lighthouse.
[E] From the rocks, [A] the sailing has [D] shown [A] [D] me
[G] that I could [D] clearly see.
If it wasn't for the lighthouse, now [A] baby, where would this ship [D] be?
