Representative Text

1 Jesus, now I come to Thee,
O save me;
I am on the trou­bled sea,
Lord, save me.

Refrain:
Save me, Lord, O hear my cry;
Save me, or I sink and die;
Oh, the waves are roll­ing high—
Save or I die!

2 Savior, Thy sal­va­tion bring,
O save me;
Save me from the tide of sin,
Lord, save me. [Refrain]

3 Lord, I come con­fess­ing all,
O save me;
In Thy ten­der arms I fall,
Now save me. [Refrain]
