I feel the sonlight comin' through
Makin' up my mind to meet with you
I never thought we could see eye to eye
But now I find I've lived a lie.
Drifting about on an angry sea
A storm was building over me
I never knew any other way
My happiness changed from day to day

chorus:
Rubber canoe, rubber canoe
The ocean moved beneath me in my rubber canoe
To weather the rage that's all could do
'Till Jesus I gave my life to You

I want You to know my change of heart is real
And it wasn't You that gave me a bad deal
Closing my eyes I turned my back on You
And waves came and swamped me in my rubber canoe.

In the times I've thought it through
I can never feel l see the view
All of my plans, they've never gone afloat
So I was left standing in a rubber boat.

(chorus)

I want You to know my change of heart is real
And it wasn't You that gave me a bad deal
Closing my eyes I turned my back on You
And waves came and swamped me in my rubber canoe.

(chorus)
