Author: W. W. D. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #1194 (1886) First Line: Fierce and wild the storm is raging Lyrics: 1 Fierce and wild the storm is raging
Round a helpless bark,
On to doom 'tis swiftly driving
O'er the waters dark!
Chorus:
Joy, behold the Saviour;
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, do not fear.
2 Weary, helpless, hopeless seamen,
Fainting on the deck,
With what joy they hail their Saviour,
As he hails the wreck! [Chorus]
3 On a wild and stormy ocean,
Sinking neath the wave,
Souls that perish heed the message,
Christ has come to save! [Chorus]
4 Daring death thy soul to rescue,
He in love has come;
Leave the wreck, and in him trusting,
Thou shalt reach thy home! [Chorus] Topics: Special Department Bible Songs Scripture: Psalm 107:28-30 Tune Title: I'LL STAND BY YOU
Joy, behold the Saviour
