Tune: | PILOT ME |
Composer: | John E. Gould |
1 Jesus, Saviour, pilot me
Over life's tempestuous sea;
Unknown waves before me roll,
Hiding rock and treacherous shoal;
Chart and compass came from thee;
Jesus, Saviour, pilot me.
2 When the apostles' fragile bark
Struggled with the billows dark
On the stormy Galilee,
Thou didst walk upon the sea;
And when they beheld thy form,
Safe thy glided through the storm.
3 When at last I near the shore,
And the fearful breakers roar
'Tween me and the peaceful rest
Then, while leaning on thy breast,
May I hear thee say to me,
"Fear not, I will pilot thee."
