Author: Rev. Johnson Oatman, Jr. Hymnal: Songs of the Century #7 (1900) First Line: Will I have a guide at the eventide Refrain First Line: We will have a guide to the other side Lyrics: 1 Will I have a guide at the eventide,
When my bark starts out to sea?
Will a star shine bright, lighting up the night,
When I face eternity?
Refrain:
We will have a guide to the other side,
When the gates are held ajar;
Like a beam of light, to illume the night,
Christ will be our Guiding Star.
2 Will the shadows rift, and the dark veil lift,
When at last my sails are spread?
As the sad winds moan, must I sail alone
To the haven land ahead. [Refrain]
3 Over bar and strand will the unseen hand
Of my Savior hold the helm?
Will he safely guide through the wind and tide
To my home in yonder realm? [Refrain]
4 Tho' the sea may roll, yet my trembling soul
In his strong arms will be pressed,
And I’ll find at last, when the anchor’s cast,
My repose upon his breast. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Will I have a guide at the eventide]
