I sail the wide seas no more;
Black clouds are o’er me spread;
Black clouds are o’er me spread;
Angry clouds o’er­shade the sky,
For my pi­lot at the helm can nev­er fail.
For my pi­lot at the helm can nev­er fail.
Verging to­ward the last.
Thinking not of Him who saves.

The Rock that shall en­dure,
Not al­ways in the sun­shine sweet;
And rest de­lay to come,
Though shak­en, will stand,
Raged mad­ly round; He rose from sleep—
Proclaims, It is done.
From the Fa­ther in his hand.

The tem­pest

O’er the wild, stor­my deep—
And forms ab­ove my head.
And forms ab­ove my head.
Still I stand the tem­pest’s shock,
Fills my heart with fear,
Fills my heart with fear,
To the Rock of Ag­es,
Zion’s ship is near­ing shore;
Storm-tossed the ma­rin­er, far from the shore;
Eternal, firm and sure;
He lead­eth me.
Which drives us near­er home,
Which sweep o’er the sea?
He spoke! Obe­di­ent, trem­bling, awed,
Its rul­er shall come,
O’er the earth the wel­come rain,
