Hymn Context Compare
For the rider and the horse
On the rocking, rolling boat.
Once I thought we were the only ones.
Your great love will lead me through
Jesus, Savior, pilot me
Join the glad woods and hills;
Join the glad woods and hills;
So Noah passed across the flood—
But Thy presence on the deep
It was a stormy night,
In times when temptation casts o’er me its power;
“Wrecked outright!” No more to own
Neither water nor clay—salt are we!
Were the birds always in the air?
Up to the mountains, and then down!
Sinking to rise no more;
Fills us with wonder, we’re wowed every time!
Firm and endless and free,
Clear the skies before me
The earth, it bows

sea

Now the dwelling place of God
“Be silent and be still!”
And when it finds them, they become His sons.
You are the peace in my troubled sea
Unknown waves before me roll,
Join the bright flowers and rills.
Join the bright flowers and rills.
Praise the Lord! He has brought
And the waters sank to sleep
The disciples all alone,
Thou blest Rock of Ages, I’m hiding in Thee.
Still a voyager, yet now
Our corrupt nature vile, put off wholly;
God put them there!
Eat in a house with people like me!
Heard my despairing cry,
Flowers and bugs, rocks and grass, leaves and trees.
Our dear Lord need not a human be;
Like the stars
Oh Lord, You know the hearts of men
