Over life's tempestuous sea;
Unknown waves before me roll,
Hiding rocks and treach'rous shoal;
Chart and compass come from Thee -
Jesus, Savior, pilot me!
2 As a mother stills her child,
Thou canst hush the ocean wild;
Boist'rous waves obey Thy will
When Thou sayest to them, "Be still!"
Wondrous Sov'reign of the sea,
Jesus, Savior, pilot me!
3 When at last I near the shore,
And the fearful breakers roar
'Twixt me and the peaceful rest -
Then, while leaning on Thy breast,
May I hear Thee say to me,
"Fear not - I will pilot thee!" Topics: Devotional; Jesus Christ His Glory and Power; Stillness Used With Tune: PILOT
