And be Thou nigh.
And the sea is dashed to foam,
And thun­der shakes the ground,
And thun­der shakes the ground,
At His com­mand the va­pors rise,
And thun­der shakes the ground,
In clouds from earth’s re­mot­est end;

The light­nings flash

Keep us from wild alarm;
And the thun­der shakes the dome:
And tem­pest all around,
And tem­pest all around,
He pours the rain, He brings the wind,
And tem­pest all around,
He holds the tem­pest in His hand.
