I’ll Stand by Until the Morning

Fierce and wild the storm is rag­ing

Round a help­less bark

On to doom ’tis swift­ly driv­ing

O’er the wa­ters dark!

Joy

be­hold the Sav­ior

Joy

the mes­sage hear

I’ll stand by un­til the morn­ing

I’ve come to save you

do not fear.

Yes

I’ll stand by un­til the morn­ing

I’ve come to save you

do not fear.

Weary

help­less hope­less sea­men

Fainting on the deck

With what joy they hail their Sav­ior

As He hails their wreck!

On a wild and stor­my ocean

Sinking ’neath the wave

Souls that per­ish heed the mes­sage

Christ has come to save!

Daring death thy soul to res­cue

He in love has come

Leave the wreck and in Him trust­ing

Thou shalt reach thy home!
