Jesus in the Vessel

lyricist: Anonymous, 1874
Composer: James Price

O’er the ocean

dark and gloomy

Thro’ the rag­ing storms that roar;

We are sail­ing home to glo­ry

Where the tem­pests beat no more;

We have storms and gales to wea­ther

Thro’ the dark­est clouds that form

But with Je­sus in the ves­sel

We will smile at the storm.

Yes

with Je­sus in the ves­sel

We will smile at the storm;

Yes

with Je­sus in the ves­sel

We will smile at the storm.

Tho’ our way is dark and drea­ry

And the wind is fierce and strong

Tho’ our hands grow faint and wea­ry

This wild tem­pest won’t be long;

We will sail thro’ storm and dan­ger

Thro’ the dark­est clouds that form

And with Je­sus in the ves­sel

We will smile at the storm.

O’er the dark and stor­my ocean

We will sail at His com­mand

Bravely face the wild com­mo­tion

Till we reach the bet­ter land.

Courage

then

come wind and wea­ther

Come the dark­est clouds that form

For with Je­sus in the ves­sel

We will smile at the storm.
