Representative Text

1 Brother, whence art thou now steering?
On to rocks and on to reefs?
Or up to the port of glory,
There upon the shore of peace?

Refrain:
Brother, whence art thou now steering?
T’ward the blest eternal shore?
Take the Saviour as your pilot,
He will leave you never more.

2 Take the Saviour as your pilot,
He will guide you o’er the shoal,
He will never, never leave you,
But will bring you to the goal. [Refrain]

3 Storms may threaten oft to wreck you,
And the port seem hid from view;
Put your trust in Christ our Saviour,
He will never prove untrue. [Refrain]
